▪ Abstract The macular region of the primate retina is yellow in color due to the presence of
the macular pigment, composed of two dietary xanthophylls, lutein and zeaxanthin, and …

The general principles of retinal organization are now well known. It may seem surprising
that retinal organization in the primate, which has a complex visual behavioral repertoire …

PURPOSE:(1) To investigate the distribution of anterior corneal higher-order aberrations
(HOAs, 3rd to 6th orders) in the population;(2) to evaluate the symmetry of anterior corneal …

We report here the development of Gd-doped ZnO quantum dots (QDs) as dual modal
fluorescence and magnetic resonance imaging nanoprobes. They are fabricated in a simple …

Purpose: The high-performance visual function associated with central vision is mediated by
the macula (the central retina), which accumulates three diet-derived pigments (the …

PURPOSE: To study the theoretical optical performance of 3 intraocular lens (IOL) designs
in the presence of IOL decentration. SETTING: Optics Center, Bausch & Lomb, Rochester …

The primate visual system consists of parallel pathways initiated by distinct cell types in the
retina that encode different features of the visual scene. Small bistratified cells (SBCs), which …

Compared to most ophthalmic technologies, adaptive optics, or AO, is relatively young. The
first working systems were presented in 1997 and, owing in part to its complexity, the …

An instrument permitting visual testing in white light following the correction of spherical
aberration (SA) and longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) was used to explore the visual …

Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration (LCA) influences the optical quality of the eye. However,
the reported LCA varies across studies, likely associated to differences in the measurement …
