Green Synthesis of Extract-Mediated Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles as Photocatalysts and Biological Agents.

Recently, biosynthesized nanoparticles (NPs) have played a vital role as an alternative to physical and chemical methods. Here, a distinctive bioinspired synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) has been introduced using leaf extracts of as the reducing agent by using distilled water and methanol. The synthesized catalysts were analyzed through ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, and X-ray diffraction for NP synthesis, morphology, functional group, elemental composition, and peak crystallinity analysis.

Refractive errors among commercial drivers.

Purpose: To determine the pattern of refractive error among commercial drivers in north India.

Methods: Descriptive study with convenient sampling conducted among commercial drivers of north India.

Midterm outcome of single scleral suture technique in trabeculectomy and phacotrabeculectomy: a simplified approach.

Purpose: To report outcome of trabeculectomy performed by single scleral suture in Indian eyes.

Methods: Non-randomized, non-masked, retrospective cohort analysis. Medical records of all consecutive patients who underwent trabeculectomy between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2016 at CL Gupta Eye Institute, Moradabad (India), were reviewed and analyzed.
