Abstract Background The aim of this study was to compare the postoperative corneal biomechanical properties between small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and other corneal... -
Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPS) Gr...
Abstract The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved phase I/II clinical trials for embryonic stem (ES) cell-based retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE)... -
High-resolution dual-modality photoacoustic ocular imaging
We have developed a prototype ocular imaging system that integrates optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy and high-frequency ultrasound imaging. The system can perform... -
Effect of Limbal relaxing incisions during implantable collamer lens surgery
Abstract Background The limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) technique is a safe and an inexpensive procedure, which is simple for experts to perform. It can effectively reduce... -
Predictors of health-related quality of life in Chinese patients receiving tr...
Abstract Background Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is currently the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment in developed countries and seriously affects the... -
En-face optical coherence tomography - a novel application of non-invasive im...
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an optical interferometric technique developed mainly for in vivo imaging of the eye and biological tissues. In this paper, we demonstrate... -
Development of a core outcome set for amblyopia, strabismus and ocular motili...
Abstract Background Core Outcome Sets (COS) are defined as the minimum sets of outcomes that should be measured and reported in all randomised controlled trials to facilitate... -
The neuroregenerative effects of topical decorin on the injured mouse cornea
Abstract Background The cornea is innervated with a rich supply of sensory nerves that play important roles in ocular surface health. Any injury or pathology of the corneal... -

We describe an ultrahigh-resolution (UHR) retinal imaging system that combines adaptive optics Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT) with an adaptive optics... -
The association between socioeconomic status and visual impairments among pri...
Abstract Background Glaucoma is one of the most leading causes of permanent visual impairments in Korea, and social expenses spent for the glaucoma are increasing. This study is... -
A five-year retrospective study of the epidemiological characteristics and vi...
Abstract Background Pediatric trauma can lead to serious visual impairment as a result of the trauma itself or secondary to amblyopia. Precise data on epidemiological... -
Temporal multiplexing with adaptive optics for simultaneous vision
We present and test a methodology for generating simultaneous vision with a deformable mirror that changed shape at 50 Hz between two vergences: 0 D (far vision) and −2.5 D... -
On the phase of plasmons excited by slits in a metal film
The excitation of surface plasmons by subwavelength slits in metal films is studied using a rigorous diffraction model. It is shown that the plasmon is launched by a slit in... -
