Purpose: To compare the visual outcomes and optical quality of 2 presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses (IOLs) with those of a monofocal IOL.
Settings: Eye Center, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University, School of Medicine, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Methods: The study included patients who had cataract surgery and were implanted with a Tecnis Symfony Extended Range of Vision (EROV) IOL (ZXR00), a zonal refractive multifocal IOL (Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15), or a monofocal IOL (Lentis L-313). Postoperative examinations took place at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months and included visual acuity at far, intermediate, and near distances, defocus curves, contrast sensitivity, wavefront aberrations, and modulation transfer function (MTF). Patients completed the Visual Function Index questionnaire (VF-14), the Quality of Vision questionnaire (QoV), and a visual quality self-evaluation.
Results: One hundred thirteen patients were enrolled. The EROV and multifocal IOLs achieved a significantly better range of intermediate vergences (P < .05), better distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (P ≤ .001), higher VF-14 (P < .05) and visual quality self-evaluation scores (P < .05) than the monofocal IOL, but there were no significant differences between the 2 presbyopia-correcting IOLs. The EROV provided lower total wavefront aberrations and better MTF than the multifocal and the monofocal IOLs (P < .05) but demonstrated a worse QoV score (P < .05), especially for severity of halo (P < .01) and starburst (P < .05) symptoms.
Conclusions: Both the Tecnis Symfony ZXR00 and the Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 offered excellent visual restoration and stable distance and intermediate visual acuity, good subjective visual function, and good contrast sensitivity. The EROV IOL provided better objective optical quality and more prominent dysphotopsia symptoms than the multifocal IOL.

Purpose: To compare automated and semiautomated methods for the measurement of retinal microvascular biomarkers: the automated retinal vascular morphology (AutoMorph) algorithm and the Singapore "I" Vessel Assessment (SIVA) software.
Methods: Analysis of retinal fundus photographs centered on optic discs from the population-based Montrachet Study of adults aged 75 years and older. Comparison and agreement evaluation with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between SIVA and AutoMorph measures of the central retinal venular and arteriolar equivalent, arteriolar-venular ratio, and fractal dimension.

The effective and precise processing of visual information by the human eye primarily relies on the diverse contrasting functions achieved through synaptic regulation of ion transport in the retina. Developing a bio-inspired retina that uses ions as information carriers can more accurately replicate retina's natural signal processing capabilities, enabling high-performance machine vision. Herein, an ion-confined transport strategy is proposed to construct a bio-inspired retina by developing artificial synapses with inhibitory and excitatory contrasting functions.

The growth of large semiconductor crystals is crucial for advancing modern electronics and optoelectronics. While various crystal growth techniques have been developed for lead halide perovskites, a significant challenge remains: as crystal size increases, performance tends to deteriorate dramatically. This study addresses the inherent limitations of perovskite crystal growth by designing a novel strategy for near-equilibrium growth system to maintain optimal conditions throughout the process.

With the rapid advancements in the field of fluorescent dyes, accurate prediction of optical properties and efficient retrieval of dye-related data are essential for effective dye design. However, there is a lack of tools for comprehensive data integration and convenient data retrieval. Moreover, existing prediction models mainly focus on a single property of fluorescent dyes and fail to account for the diverse fluorophores and solutions in a systematic manner.

We sought to quantify referral completion rates and ED/Urgent Care visit durations at a pediatric tertiary care center and analyze how demographic factors may influence these quality indicators. We discuss an overarching strategy to improve access to subspecialty care through a same-day access program.
