In this research, three illuminants that improve color discrimination ability of people with red-green color vision deficiency were developed. The illuminants are close to daylight-colored and were produced by using spectral optimization. Deutans were the focus of this research, but a few protans were also tested for reference. The illuminants were produced by combining different types of LEDs, and their effects were tested with several test subjects with and without color vision deficiency using the Ishihara color vision test and the Farnsworth Panel D-15 test. The illuminant with the most powerful effect provided near perfect results with the Ishihara test for deutans, while the other two illuminants produced smaller improvements. The Farnsworth Panel D-15 test produced results that were similar to the Ishihara test though generally the color discrimination of blue hues was weaker under the most powerful illuminant.

Affordable high-resolution cameras and state-of-the-art computer vision techniques have led to the emergence of various vision-based tactile sensors. However, current vision-based tactile sensors mainly depend on geometric optics or marker tracking for tactile assessments, resulting in limited performance. To solve this dilemma, we introduce optical interference patterns as the visual representation of tactile information for flexible tactile sensors.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA), a systemic vasculitis affecting large and medium-sized arteries, poses significant diagnostic and management challenges, particularly in preventing irreversible complications like vision loss. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), offer promising solutions to enhance diagnostic accuracy and optimize treatment strategies for GCA. This systematic review, conducted according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, synthesizes existing literature on AI applications in GCA care, with a focus on diagnostic accuracy, treatment outcomes, and predictive modeling.

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a neurotoxicant with adverse effects on visual systems from fish to man. Clinical signs of visual deficits including color-vision alterations, visual field constriction and blindness have been frequently identified in patients and affected animals following acute and chronic exposure to MeHg. However, it is still unclear whether MeHg causes developmental defects in the eye.

Purpose: This study presents a novel randomized controlled trial investigating photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy as an intervention method for color vision deficiency (CVD).

Methods: A total of 74 participants with CVD were assigned to either the PBM group or the control group. In the PBM group, participants wore virtual reality (VR) goggles twice daily, with a 12-h interval, over a four-week period.

Hardware implementation of reconfigurable and nonvolatile photoresponsivity is essential for advancing in-sensor computing for machine vision applications. However, existing reconfigurable photoresponsivity essentially depends on the photovoltaic effect of p-n junctions, which photoelectric efficiency is constrained by Shockley-Queisser limit and hinders the achievement of high-performance nonvolatile photoresponsivity. Here, we employ bulk photovoltaic effect of rhombohedral (3R) stacked/interlayer sliding tungsten disulfide (WS) to surpass this limit and realize highly reconfigurable, nonvolatile photoresponsivity with a retinomorphic photovoltaic device.
