Tuneable, variable, optical attenuation through an optical circulator with a broad, linear attenuation range of Δ ∼ (30-40) dB is demonstrated using non-reciprocal Faraday rotation in a double-pass configuration with a combination of permanent magnets and an electromagnet. A fiber-coupled magneto-optical variable optical attenuator (MVOA) operates over the near IR with an attenuation tuning range of Δ > 30 dB, a resolution of Δ ∼ 0.02 dB, a response time of < 2 ms, and a temperature dependence over = 25-70°C of Δ / Δ = -8 × 10 dB/°C.

However, it is challenging to accommodate both the high-density solid-state proof mass and the highly elastic component simultaneously in a miniature sensor, which makes it difficult for the sensors to maintain comparable sensing performance at a miniaturized size. Here, a novel, to the best of our knowledge, liquid metal-based fiber optic accelerometer (LMFOA) is proposed for the first time to meet this requirement.

Purpose: To evaluate optic disc and macular microvasculature changes in children with anisometropic amblyopia before and after treatment.
Methods: In all, 60 children with unilateral anisometropic amblyopia between the ages of 6 and 12 were randomly selected from the ophthalmology clinic of Fuyang People's Hospital, while 60 children with non-amblyopia in the same age range were randomly selected as a normal control group. The right eye was uniformly taken in the control group with at least 6 months of follow-up.

Background: Previous investigations on optical coherence tomography (OCT) in multiple sclerosis (MS) focused on generalizable macular and peri-papillary regions without considering the anatomic variations of the retinal layer thickness.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the utility of parafoveal retinal layer thickness measured by OCT, underscoring its relationships with clinical outcomes in MS.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 214 people with MS (pwMS) and 57 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled.

Purpose: To evaluate the posterior scleral stiffness of different regions in high myopic eyes and to explore its associations with macular choroidal and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness and vasculature.
Methods: Thirty subjects with high myopic eyes and 30 subjects with low myopic eyes were included in this study. The elastic modulus of the macular and peripapillary sclera at the temporal, nasal, superior and inferior regions were determined via shear wave elastography (SWE).
