The paper deals with computing frictional forceclosure grasps of 3D objects problem. The key idea of the presented work is the demonstration that wrenches associated to any three non-aligned contact points of 3D objects form a basis of their corresponding ...
Purpose: Choroidal melanoma is the most common primary malignant ocular tumor in human adults. Relevant mouse models of human uveal melanoma still remain to be developed. We have studied the transgenic mouse strain, Tyrp-1-TAg, to try to gain insight into ...
Mutations in humans are associated with several forms of inherited retinal dystrophies, such as Retinitis Pigmentosa which lead to retinal cell death and irreversible loss of vision. Genes involved in affected patients mainly encode proteins related to vis ...
Combining photodynamic therapy (PDT) using verteporfin (Visudyne(R)) with ranibizumab (Lucentis(R)) can optimize the overall treatment outcome by providing more efficacy in vessel closure, and thus reduce the need for retreatment in patients with wet age-r ...
Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) is the leading cause and the hallmark of Glaucoma, an asymptomatic and irreversible degenerative disease that, undetected or untreated, progresses to blindness due to optic nerve atrophy. Glaucoma is the second cause of ...
There is no doubt that optical coherence tomography has become an important biomedical imaging tool today especially due to recent improvements in detection as well as fight source technology. OCT achieves resolution in tissue of a few micrometers and can ...

In this paper, we present a flexible new technique for single-viewpoint omnidirectional camera calibration. The proposed method only re-quires the camera to observe a planar pattern shown at a few different orienta-tions. Either the camera or the planar pa ...
Efficiency and speed of photonic crystal lasers are improved by passivating InGaAs/GaAs membranes using (NH(4))S treatment. Lasers show five-fold reduction in nonradiative surface recombination rate, resulting in four-fold reduction in threshold and room-t ...
PURPOSE. To present a novel and minimally invasive approach to intraocular pressure (IOP) monitoring based on a sensing contact lens. METHODS. The key element of this measurement method is a soft contact lens with an embedded microfabricated strain gauge a ...
We propose a novel approach to intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement allowing minimal invasive continuous monitoring over prolonged periods, regardless of patient position and activities [1]. The key element of this innovative measurement method is a soft ...
