Precise Information on Anisometropia

[The ocular components in anisometropia].

PURPOSE To asses the correlation between ocular components (axial length, anterior segment length, corneal power, vitreous length and equivalent power of the eye) and refractive error in eyes with higher and lower ametropia of subjects with anisometropia. METHODS An analytical survey was carried out in 68 patients with anisometropia of two or more diopters, assisted at the Ophthalmological Cl...

Visual deficits in anisometropia

Amblyopia is usually associated with the presence of anisometropia, strabismus or both early in life. We set out to explore quantitative relationships between the degree of anisometropia and the loss of visual function, and to examine how the presence of strabismus affects visual function in observers with anisometropia. We measured optotype acuity, Pelli-Robson contrast sensitivity and stereoa...

Strabismus, anisometropia, and amblyopia.

EVIDENCE will be presented in this communication to support the hypothesis that anisometropia per se does not produce strabismus, but that, for hypermetropes, the refraction of the better eye is an important factor. Further, the clinical entity of anisometropic amblyopia and its treatment will be discussed. Finally, some comments will be made on optical correction in anisometropia. The case rec...

Morphological Resources for Precise Information Retrieval

Question answering (QA) systems aim at providing a precise answer to a given user question. Their major difficulty lies in the lexical gap problem between question and answering passages. We present here the different types of morphological phenomena in question answering, the resources available for French, and in particular a resource that we built containing deverbal agent nouns. Then, we ev...
