For the first time, the 4- and 5-port optical routers are designed by using the West First routing algorithm for use in optical network on chip. The use of the WF algorithm has made the designed routers to provide non-blocking routing in photonic network on chip. These routers not only are based on high speed Mach-Zehnder switches(Which have a higher bandwidth and more thermal tolerance than mi...

Dear Editor, Although various underlying conditions such as increased intracranial pressure, inflammation, ischemia, or compression can induce optic disc edema (ODE), all forms of disc swelling ultimately result from blockage of axo-plasmic transport [1]. In contrast to these types of ODE, which can generally be managed by systemic treatment of the underlying etiology, we describe a case of ODE...

Purpose The human eye has typically more optical aberrations than conventional artificial optical systems. While the lower order modes (defocus and astigmatism) are well studied, our purpose is to explore the influence of genes versus the environment on the higher order aberrations of the optical components of the eye. Methods We have performed a classical twin study in a sample from the Regi...

In this paper, we use the optical-type eye tracking system to control powered wheelchair. The userís eye movements are translated to screen position using the optical-type eye tracking system. The pupil-tracking goggles with a video CCD camera and a frame grabber analyzes a series of human pupil images when the user is gazing at the screen. A new calibration algorithm is then used to determine ...

The aged human eye is commonly affected by presbyopia, and therefore, it gradually loses its capability to form images of objects placed at different distances. Extended depth of focus (EDOF) imaging elements can overcome this inability, despite the introduction of a certain amount of aberration. This paper evaluates the EDOF imaging performance of the so-called peacock eye phase diffractive el...

Stintzy (i966), in a review of 450 cases of eye injuries, mostly unilateral, in children, reported the development of cataract in 26 per cent. Traumatic cataract, if not complicated by severe damage to other structures of the eye and if successfully treated by surgery, presents the surgeon and the child with the problems of unilateral aphakia. The optical correction of the latter is the crux of...

Intraocular lens (IOL) is an artificial lens implanted into the eye. It usually replaces the existing crystalline lens, which is clouded over due to a cataract. In order to evaluate the optical performance of different IOLs an optomechanical model of human eye was developed. This model closely reproduces anatomical and optical properties of the average human eye. This makes it possible to measu...

Nowadays, people spend more time in front of electronic screens like computers, laptops, TV screens, mobile phones or tablets which cause eye blink frequency to decrease. Each blink spreads the tears on the eye cornea to moisture and disinfect the eye. Reduced blink rate causes eye redness and dryness also known as Dry Eye, which belongs to the major symptoms of the Computer Vision Syndrome. Th...
