We present a study with 20 participants with low vision who operated two types of screen magnification (lens and full) on a laptop computer to read two types of document (text and web page). Our purposes were to comparatively assess the two magnification modalities, and to obtain some insight into how people with low vision use the mouse to control the center of magnification. These observations may inform the design of systems for the automatic control of the center of magnification. Our results show that there were no significant differences in reading performances or in subjective preferences between the two magnification modes. However, when using the lens mode, our participants adopted more consistent and uniform mouse motion patterns, while longer and more frequent pauses and shorter overall path lengths were measured using the full mode. Analysis of the distribution of gaze points (as measured by a gaze tracker) using the full mode shows that, when reading a text document, most participants preferred to move the area of interest to a specific region of the screen.

Importance: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) has proven to be a challenging and enduring complication of prematurity. However, its association with neurodevelopment across the spectrum of IVH severity, independent of prematurity, and in the context of contemporary care remains uncertain.
Objective: To evaluate national trends in IVH diagnosis and the association with survival and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age.
Purpose: Accurate identification of radiographic landmarks is fundamental to characterizing glenohumeral relationships before and sequentially after shoulder arthroplasty, but manual annotation of these radiographs is laborious. We report on the use of artificial intelligence, specifically computer vision and deep learning models (DLMs), in determining the accuracy of DLM-identified and surgeon identified (SI) landmarks before and after anatomic shoulder arthroplasty.
Materials & Methods: 240 true anteroposterior radiographs were annotated using 11 standard osseous landmarks to train a deep learning model.

Purpose: To evaluate clinical outcomes obtained after cataract surgery involving the implantation of a trifocal hydrophobic intraocular lens (IOL) and to determine if pupil size and the corneal aberrometric profile correlate to visual acuity at different distances.
Methods: 49 patients (98 eyes) underwent bilateral cataract surgery with the placement of FineVision HP IOLs for presbyopia and were assessed at 1- and 3- to 6-months post-surgery. Postoperatively, refraction, monocular and binocular uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA and CDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) and the binocular defocus curve were measured.

Modulating memristors optically paves the way for new optoelectronic devices with applications in computer vision, neuromorphic computing, and artificial intelligence. Here, we report on memristors based on a hybrid material of vertically aligned zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO NRs) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The memristors require no forming step and exhibit the typical electronic switching properties of a bipolar memristor.

Background And Objective: There is no strict by-the-book rule as to which approach is the best strabismus surgery for patients with sensory exotropia. More commonly, a monocular lateral rectus recession and a medial rectus resection (monocular R & R; MRR) is performed in the eye with a poorer prognosis. Rarely, for larger deviations, a third or fourth horizontal muscle in the better eye is added.
