Purpose. This study retrospectively analyzed the postoperative visual functions of myopic eyes implanted with multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) to evaluate the efficacy of multifocal IOL in highly myopic eyes. Methods. We studied 61 patients (96 eyes) who were implanted with multifocal IOL ZMA00 or ZMB00 (Abbott Medical Optics). The patients were stratified into two groups by axial length: 26 m...

Vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (VA-SWNTs) have been synthesized by an Alactivated plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method. On this basis, we have developed a facile but effective method for direct growth of multicomponent micropatterns of VA-SWNTs interposed within the patterned areas surrounded by vertically aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (VA-MWNTs) o...

PURPOSE Poor vision may detrimentally impact functional status and affect allostatic load (AL), a measure of cumulative physiological wear and tear on the body's regulatory systems. We examined the direct effects of visual acuity (VA) on mortality and its indirect effect on mortality through its impact on functional status and AL in older adults. METHODS Data from 4981 participants (age ≥ 60 ...
