In the course of mammalian lens development, a transient capillary meshwork known as the pupillary membrane (PM) forms, which is located at the pupil area; the PM nourishes the anterior surface of the lens and then regresses to make the optical path clear. Although the involvement of apoptotic process has been reported in the PM regression, the initiating factor remains unknown. We initially fo...

Iris recognition is considered as one of the best biometric methods used for human identification and verification, this is because of its unique features that differ from one person to another, and its importance in the security field. This paper proposes an algorithm for iris recognition and classification using a system based on Local Binary Pattern and histogram properties as a statistical ...

purpose : to determine the distribution of iris colors in the population of tehran and to assess possible associations between iris color and ocular disorder methods : through a stratified random cluster sampling approach, 160 clusters were selected in different municipality districts of tehran, and the approached households were invited to a clinic. after the initial interview, all participant...

For more strict security requirements, biometric research has experienced significant advances in recent years. More important is the need to overcome the rigid constraints necessitated by the practical implementation of sensible but effective security methods such as recognition. An inventive iris acquisition method with less constraints on the iris verification and identification process as w...

This paper describes a method for quickly and robustly localizing the iris and pupil boundaries of a human eye in close-up images. Such an algorithm can be critical for iris identification, or for applications that must determine the subject’s gaze direction, e.g., human-computer interaction or driver attentiveness determination. A multi-resolution coarse-to-fine search approach is used, seekin...

SUMMARY Iris cyst occurs post intraocular -surgery or post penetrating trauma, when corneal epithelial cells or conjunctiva} epithcells gains access to the anterior chamber, with cells may continue to grow & covering all available surface and formed iris cyst. As the cyst grow may caused glaucoma or block pupil area & leads to vision treatment of all form of iris cyst and epithelial down growt...

purpose : to report two young patients with unilateral pseudoexfoliation (pex) syndrome case reports : two young patients with pex syndrome were examined. the first was a 30-year-old woman who had a history of penetrating ocular trauma with iris prolapse in the right eye that subsequently developed pex material deposition on pupillary border and anterior lens capsule. the second was a 13-year-o...
