Comparison of acute non-visual bright light responses in patients with optic nerve disease, glaucoma and healthy controls

This study examined the effect of optic nerve disease, hence retinal ganglion cell loss, on nonvisual functions related to melanopsin signalling. Test subjects were patients with bilateral visual loss and optic atrophy from either hereditary optic neuropat ...

A polymer-based interface restores light sensitivity in blind rats

Diego Ghezzi

Purpose: Sight restoration is one of the new frontiers for prosthetic devices that enable the electrical stimulation of neurons. In particular, diseases affecting the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptors but preserve the inner retinal layers are p ...

A polymer-based interface restores light sensitivity in blind rats

Diego Ghezzi

Progressive degeneration of photoreceptors is one of the major causes of adult blindness in “industrialized” countries; as an example, Retinitis pigmentosa defines a set of monogenic hereditary retinal diseases, with a prevalence of 1:4000 worldwide, cause ...

Pupil responses derived from outer and inner retinal photo reception are normal in patients with hereditary optic neuropathy

Mirjam Münch, Lorette Leon

We compared the pupil responses originating from outer versus inner retinal photoreception between patients with isolated hereditary optic neuropathy (HON, n = 8) and healthy controls (n = 8). Three different testing protocols were used. For the first two ...

Combining wearable eye-tracking with 4π light-field measurements: towards controlling all bottom-up and top-down factors driving overt attention during real-world tasks

Marilyne Andersen, Mandana Sarey Khanie

For improvement of office space design, we intend to capture the full (4π) light-field of an office space, while measuring gaze, head direction, body position, blink rate, and pupil size along with task performance and subjective well-being during a variet ...

Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells: classification, function and clinical implications

Purpose of review The discovery of a new class of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) revealed their superior role for various nonvisual biological functions, including the pupil light reflex, and circadian photoentrainment. Recent ...

A polymer-based interface restores light sensitivity in rat blind retinas

Diego Ghezzi

Sight restoration is one of the new frontiers for prosthetic devices that enable the electrical stimulation of neurons. In particular, diseases that affect the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptors but preserve the inner retinal layers are preferen ...

Circadian and Wake-Dependent Effects on the Pupil Light Reflex in Response to Narrow-Bandwidth Light Pulses

Lorette Leon

PURPOSE. Nonvisual light-dependent functions in humans are conveyed mainly by intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, which express melanopsin as photopigment. We aimed to identify the effects of circadian phase and sleepiness across 24 hours ...

High-density collagen gel tubes as a matrix for primary human bladder smooth muscle cells

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Lionel Ambroise Micol

Tissue-engineered grafts for the urinary tract are being investigated for the potential treatment of several urologic diseases. These grafts, predominantly tubular-shaped, usually require in vitro culture prior to implantation to allow cell engraftment on ...

How Do Pupils Perceive Educational Robotics as a Tool to Improve their 21St Century Skills?

Christian Giang

In the past years, the use of educational robots has steadily increased, in particular due to the ongoing digitalization of modern societies and the new skills that professions require. It has been argued that educational robotics activities have the poten ...
