Background/aims: To evaluate and compare the effect of various modified monovision on binocular through-focus quality of vision.
Methods: Simulated images were computed using a numerical eye model, with a 4.7 mm pupil diameter, for various target vergences and with various combinations of spherical (SA4) and secondary spherical (SA6) aberrations. Binocular vision was provided using a video projector synchronised with active glasses. Three subjects evaluated monocular and binocular through-focus images by scoring the displayed image with a five-item continuous grading scale. Performance was evaluated in terms of depth-of-focus and area under the through-focus subjective quality of vision curves (AUC).
Results: On average, viewing through a combination of 0.4 μm of SA4 and -0.2 μm of SA6 with one eye and through a combination of -0.4 μm of SA4 and 0.2 μm of SA6 with the other eye, improved depth-of-focus and AUC, respectively, by 193% and 71% compared with naked eyes. Binocular summation occurred when both eyes viewed comparable image quality, whereas the level of binocular inhibition increased with the interocular difference of image quality.
Conclusions: Binocular performance could be optimised by choosing different multifocal profiles for each eye and by adding a defocus term between eyes.

"The Forgotten Minority": Perpetuation of Ableism in Medical Education.
J Gen Intern Med
January 2025
Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Accounting for approximately 1 in 4 community-dwelling adults in the United States (US), people with disabilities (PWD) experience significant disparities in health care quality, access, and outcomes. At the same time, US physicians have reported feeling unprepared to care for PWD and have revealed significant negative bias about this population.
Objective: To understand how physicians are trained to care for PWD in US medical schools.
Evaluating the effect of a virtual reality digital therapeutic on maternal stress among expectant and postpartum Black and Latina mothers: a protocol paper.

Background: Maternal mental health is vital to overall well-being, particularly among expectant and postpartum Black and Latina women who experience higher stress levels and mental health challenges. Traditional healthcare systems often fail to meet these needs, underscoring the need for innovative and accessible interventions. NurtureVR, a digital maternal mental health and educational program, leverages virtual reality to offer mindfulness, relaxation, and guided imagery to support these women.

The International Society for Cell & Gene Therapy Particulates Working Group has surveyed the global industry on commonly used regulatory guidance documents pertaining to particulates across various cell and gene therapy (CGT) product-based chemistry and manufacturing controls. Responses were collated from academic and industrially based individuals involved in or making decisions for manufacturing, quality control and analytics. Two surveys covering therapy developers and manufacturing suppliers were created and distributed via e-mail, through focus groups and via social media platforms.

Cataract surgery involves the implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL) to replace the opacified crystalline lens. Monofocal IOLs, the most common type, are intended to have the eye in focus at a given distance, usually at infinity. Simultaneous vision IOLs (SVIOLs) and extended depth of focus (EDOF) aim to minimize postoperative dependence on spectacles by providing either multiple foci or an extended depth of focus.
