the problem of eye detection in face images is very important for a large number of applications ranging from face recognition to gaze tracking. in this paper we propose a new algorithm for eyes detection. first, the face region is extracted from the image by skin-color information. second, horizontal projection in image is used to approximate region of the eye be obtained . at last, the eye ce...

introduction: based on the invasive studies it has been shown that factors such as age, the progress of eye disorders, lens fibers compression and the biochemical changes of ocular matrix alter the physical characteristics and elastic properties of eye. in this study, a noninvasive method of estimating human eye elasticityis proposed and its relation with age and gender is evaluated using ultra...

purpose: to report a case of isolated corneal squamous cell intraepithelial neoplasia in a patient with unilateral dry eye symptoms. case report: a 48 year old man presented with history of thermal corneal injury in his left eye two years ago, with decreased visual acuity and dry eye symptoms a short time thereafter. he was treated for dry eye with no improvement in symptoms. upon presentation,...

purpose: to measure the upper eyelid crease landmarks in an iranian population sample. methods: we studied 208 iranian subjects aged 30 to 50 years. upper eyelid crease height was measured in lateral, medial and central positions using calipers. levator function (lf) was also evaluated after exclusion of frontalis muscle function. results: mean age was 39.1±5.9 years and female to male ratio wa...

purpose: to determine the correlation between hand dominancy and eye dominancy with visual acuity and refraction in subjects with refractive errors. methods: this cross-sectional study includes 620 patients undergoing lasik. their refractive error (dry and cycloplegic), hand dominancy, eye dominancy (by hole-in-the-hand method) and visual acuity were determined. exclusion criteria were monocula...

non hodgkin lymphomas (nhl) are nodal or extra nodal monoclonal infiltrations by malignant lymphoid cells (b lymphocytes in 80% of cases), which are distinguished as indolent or aggressive forms. according to the heterogeneity of lymphoid cells and their ubiquitous anatomical distribution, these disorders can develop in any organ and have very heterogeneous clinical expressions, but they are us...
