in view of the rapid expansion of contact lens amongst the users, new dimensions have been added to the domain of ophthalmology: giant papillay conjunctivitis, a disease caused by different kinds of contact lens, appears weeks or months after they are used, although some patients are struck years later. the predominant symptoms are increased awareness of lenses, ocular itching, blurred vision a...

Background: Contact lenses are transparent, thin plastic disks that cover the surface of the cornea. Appropriate lens prescription should be performed properly by an expert to provide better visual acuity and reduce side effects. The lens administration is a multi-stage, complex and time-consuming process involving many considerations. The purpose of this study was to develop a decision support...

The amount of initial corneal swelling and the time course of corneal deswelling were measured after overnight wear of several types of hard and hydrogel lenses. Deswelling occurred in the right eye with the lens still on the cornea. In the left eye the lens was removed at eye opening and left off the cornea during deswelling. For lenses of equal nominal oxygen transmissibility, hard lenses ini...

We have fabricated and tested a compound lens consisting of an array of four kinoform lenses for hard x-ray photons of 11.3 keV. Our data demonstrate that it is possible to exceed the critical angle limit by using multiple lenses, while retaining lens function, and this suggests a route to practical focusing optics for hard x-ray photons with nanometer scale resolution and below.
