UNLABELLED AMS: To describe the characteristics and surgical outcomes of full thickness macular hole surgery after laser assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for the correction of myopia. METHODS 13 patients (14 eyes) who developed a macular hole after bilateral LASIK for the correction of myopia participated in the study. RESULTS Macular hole formed 1-83 months after LASIK (mean 13 mont...

Engineering plastics have specific properties in strength, hardness, impact resistance, and aging persistence, often used for structural plates electronic components. However, the holes made by drilling process always shrink after cutting heat dispersion due to their high thermal expansion coefficient. Drilling parameters must be discussed thoughtfully especially small-hole fabrication acquire ...

spur dike is an important element for protection of river banks. spur dike causes variations in flow field, sediment transport and bed topography. the mechanism of flow and sediment transport in a channel bend is very complex, especially when a spur dike is constructed in a bend. in this paper the time variations of dimension of the scour hole and the bed’s topography were considered around a t...

INTRODUCTION Large macular holes secondary to blunt trauma are sometimes seen in young patients within the spectrum of alterations produced by ocular trauma. METHODS Observational case report. A 32-year-old woman who had received a blunt trauma (a blow from a fist) to her right eye 10 years previously had experienced a decrease in visual acuity ever since. RESULTS Clinical photographs, fluo...

Haptic and robotic technologies have the potential to provide assessment during interaction with humans. This manuscript presents our earlier research during the IMatch project where a haptic peg-in-hole test was used in order to compare between healthy volunteers’ performance and those with neurological impairment. Subjects all performed a series of haptic virtual peg-in-hole tasks with varyin...
