Abstract:
In 1971, soft contact lenses were a striking addition to the ophthalmic field that related functionally to the existing hard contact lenses by correctingrefractive error, but their properties and description were different so as to confound ophthalmic professionals in their introduction. Their inventor Otto Wichterle, a Czechoslovakian chemist and anticommunist dissident, developed the soft lens in the 1950-60s with little knowledge of the hard lens, but its potential was broad enough to break through the communist barriers and to spark international consumer interest and development.Challenge

Abstract:
It is popular to wear the contact lens nowadays. Also, the output value of the contact lens is estimated more than 4 billion NT dollar every year. Because the phenomena of the contact lenses are very complicated, the relevant mechanisms are not well understood. Thus, the security of contact lens needs to be further investigated. In the lubricated mechanism of the contact lens, there is a layer of tear between the contact lens and cornea. The contact lens’ behavior is akin to that of a slider bearing. The lens represents the slider, the eye plays the role of the stationary pad, and the tear fil

AIM: To investigate the safety of vitreoretinal surgery when using a soft contact lens as a temporary keratoprosthesis (TKP) in patients with severe corneal opacifications. METHODS: Three patients with simultaneous corneal and vitreoretinal pathology were treated with a soft contact lens that was used as a TKP to facilitate vitreoretinal surgery. The soft contact lens was fixated with sutures onto the globe so that no leakage was possible. RESULTS: Vitreoretinal surgery with excellent fundus view was possible in all cases. The soft contact lens allowed safe central and peripheral vitrectomy. S

In this work, we proposed a classification method to identify the existence of soft lens in iris image. Our proposed method starts with segmenting the lens boundary on top of the sclera region. Then, the segmented boundary is used as features and extracted by local descriptors. These features are then trained and classified using Support Vector Machines. Th

Abstract:
Soft contact lens wear has become a common phenomenon in recent times. The contact lens when placed in the eye rapidly undergoes change. A film of biological material builds up on and in the lens matrix. The long term wear characteristics of the lens ultimately depend on this process. With time distinct structures made up of biological material have been found to build up on the lens. A fuller understanding of this process and how it relates to the lens chemistry could lead to contact lenses that are better tolerated by the eye. The tear film is a complex biological fluid, it is this fluid tha

A method for measuring the thickness and surface profiles of soft contact lenses while submerged in a saline solution has been implemented utilizing a low coherence Twyman-Green Interferometer. Although the original measurements demonstrated that features on the contact lens surfaces could be accurately determined, it was believed that the layout of the system also induced surface profile distortions. A new opto-mechanical layout has been implemented which eliminates many of these low frequency distortions. Improvements to the original phase unwrapping algorithms have also been developed to ov

There is a growing population of presbyopic contact lens wearers.

This demand has led to the development of a wide range of soft bifocal contact lens (SBCL) designs. The majority rely on "simultaneous- vision" where the in-focus image of the distant or near object formed by the appropriate portion of the lens is always accompanied by a superimposed out-of-focus image formed by the remainder of the lens.

Que faut-il faire maintenant? Les personnes plongées dans l’action ont souvent des difficultés à rester au contact du monde, et cette faillite de la fabrication du sens peut avoir des conséquences dramatiques. En s’appuyant sur de nombreuses études de cas, les auteurs présentent les fondements de la théorie du sensemaking — due au célèbre psychosociologue américain Karl Weick — et ses principa

Abstract:
L’Observatoire international sur les impacts sociétaux de l’IA et du numérique (OBVIA) publie une analyse (deuxième version) sur l’application de notification de contacts proposée par Mila. Cette analyse met en évidence des questions soulevées par le développement de l’application de notification de contacts COVI, dont le fonctionnement a été décrit dans un livre blanc, et formule une série de recommandations. Dans une démarche scientifique ouverte et publique, cette deuxième version intègre également des compléments d’informations apportés par le directeur scientifique de Mila, Yoshua

Abstract:
Le champ magnétique total résiduel, compilé à partir de données de levés aéromagnétiques accessibles au public, montre des variations dans l'intensité du champ magnétique sur le territoire de la Première nation des Teslin Tlingit. Ces variations sont généralement liées à des différences dans le type de roche ou à des variations dans la composition de la roche associées à l'histoire de la roche. Les petites caractéristiques sont liées à des roches proches de la surface, tandis que les grandes caractéristiques sont typiquement liées à des roches qui atteignent de grandes profondeurs, à plusieurs

Abstract:
Afin de réduire les contacts physiques, la Covid-19 a contraint de nombreuses administrations fiscales à adopter les technologies numériques pour les déclarations fiscales et les paiements d’impôts. Au-delà de la lutte contre la pandémie, la déclaration et le paiement électroniques sont très prometteurs pour faciliter le respect des obligations fiscales, accroître la transparence et réduire les possibilités de collusion (Okunogbe et Santoro, 2021). Eswatini a rendu obligatoire la déclaration électronique pour tous les contribuables à partir de septembre 2020, par le biais de la plateforme d’im

Abstract:
Les services de première ligne sont une composante essentielle des soins de santé pour la population. Dans une région touchée par une grave pénurie de médecins, le risque de ne pouvoir accéder en temps opportun à des soins appropriés peut engendrer des problèmes de santé sévères en particulier chez les personnes vulnérables. Dès 1975, le gouvernement du Québec a introduit plusieurs mesures pour influencer le choix de la région de pratique des omnipraticiens et ainsi améliorer l’équité dans leur répartition géographique. Certaines mesures sont incitatives. Celles-ci incluent les bourses-contrat
