PURPOSE To investigate the effect of hinge position on corneal topography after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia. SETTING Academic center and refractive surgery practice. METHODS Topography data obtained from 89 eyes of 46 patients after LASIK were analyzed. Using a system of Cartesian coordinates, data along the horizontal and vertical axes were analyzed, measuring sagittal ...

BACKGROUND Despite the immense literature related to diverse human electroencephalographic (EEG) parameters, very few studies have focused on the reliability of these measures. Some of the most studied components (i.e., P3 or MMN) have received more attention regarding the stability of their main parameters, such as latency, amplitude or topography. However, spectral modulations have not been a...

BACKGROUND Some controversy remains about the potential applicability of cognitive potentials for evaluating the cerebral activity associated with cognitive capacity. A fundamental requirement is that these neurophysiological parameters show a high level of stability over time. Previous studies have shown that the reliability of diverse parameters of the P3 component (latency and amplitude) ran...

Definition The deviation of the height of the ocean surface from the geoid is known as the ocean surface topography. The geoid is a surface on which the Earth’s gravity field is uniform. The ocean surface topography is caused by ocean waves, tides, currents, and the loading of atmospheric pressure. The main application of ocean surface topography is for the determination of large-scale ocean ci...

17 run-up algorithm. The code requires as input detailed information on seismic source mechanisms, gridded bathymetric data information for the open sea propagation, and a set of gridded Digital Elevation Models (DEM) containing bathymetry and topography for use during the inundation phase. Accurate bathymetry and topography data for Rhodes were purchased/collected from various sources, GIS-pro...

Map-dot-fingerprint dystrophy cause painless blurred vision due to irregular astigmatism. Corneal topography may show asymmetry and irregularity and can resemble keratoconus. Two patients with map-dot dystrophy with unilateral blurring of vision are presented that were misdiagnosed as keratoconus due to asymmetric corneal topography. Medical treatment with hypertonic saline and lubrication in o...

A system to measure the topography of the first optical surface of the human eye noninvasively by using a curvature sensor is described. The static corneal topography and the dynamic topography of the tear film can both be measured, and the topographies obtained are presented. The system makes possible the study of the dynamic aberrations introduced by the tear film to determine their contribut...

19 Mass associated with surface topography makes a significant contribution to the Earth’s 20 gravitational potential at all spectral scales. Accurate computation in spherical harmonics to 21 high degree requires calculations of multiple integer powers of the global topography. The 22 purpose of this paper is to analyse the contributions of Earth’s topography to its potential to 23 the tenth po...

PURPOSE To compare the outcomes of topography-guided and wavefront-optimized treatment in patients having laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia. SETTING Advanced Eye Centre, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India. DESIGN Prospective contralateral-eye case study. METHODS Patients had topography-guided LASIK in 1 eye and wavefront-optimized LA...

Optical colonoscopy is the preferred modality for the screening and prevention of colorectal cancer. Chromoendoscopy can increase lesion detection rate by highlighting tissue topography with a colored dye, but is too time-consuming to be adopted in routine colonoscopy screening. We developed a fast and dye-free technique that generates virtual chromoendoscopy images that incorporate topography ...
