Black intraocular lenses: near infra-red light transmission may risk treatment failure
Intractable diplopia occurs in approximately 0.8% of patients following strabis-mus surgery, with considerable detriment to visual quality of life. Long-term therapeutic occlusion is required to permit functional vision. Black intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is an effective therapeutic option associated with high rates of postoperative satisfaction. 1 Black IOL implantation entails a cost t...
متن کاملNear Infra-red Spectroscopy of V838 Monocerotis
Near IR, multi epoch, spectroscopic and photometric observations of the enigmatic, eruptive variable V838 Mon in the JHK bands are reported. One of unusual features of the spectra is the detection of several strong neutral TiI lines in emission in the K band. From the strength of these lines, the mass of the ejected envelope is estimated to be in the range 10−7 to 10−5 M . The spectra also show...

متن کامل(Near-Infra) Red Means STOP: Shutting Down Cancer with NIR Light
Killing cancer cells is easy. We have lots of ways to do it. For example, something as simple as a jar of formaldehyde stops respiring tissues in their tracks. Killing cancer cells while leaving the surrounding tissue intact is much harder. Despite decades of research, cancer treatment remains a therapeutic regime that often combats cancer at the expense of patient health. Because current cance...
