Dynamic accommodation measurement using Purkinje reflections and machine learning by Faik Ozan Ozhan, Ugur Aygun, Afsun Sahin, Hakan Urey

“…We developed a simple setup for real-time dynamic gaze tracking and accommodation measurements based on Purkinje reflections, which are the reflections from front and back surfaces of the cornea and the eye lens. We used an accurate eye model in ZEMAX to simulate the Purkinje reflection positions at different focus distances of the eye, which matched the experimental data. …”

Aspartic acid racemization method for age estimation in human tissues: a review by Gumpangseth T, Pasuk Mahakkanukrauh

“…Aspartic acid racemization can occur in many human structures e.g. teeth, bone, articular cartilage, intervertebral disc, yellow ligament, skin, lung parenchyma, aorta, and eye-lens. Additionally, the relationship between aspartic acid racemization and age can be used for investigation of protein turnover and pathological diseases. …”

Cloud Observation and Cloud Cover Calculation at Nighttime Using the Automatic Cloud Observation System (ACOS) Package by Bu-Yo Kim, Joo Wan Cha

“…Prior to calculating the cloud cover of ACOS, pre-processing was performed by removing surrounding obstacles and correcting the distortion caused by the fish-eye lens. In addition, the red–blue ratio (RBR) threshold was determined, according to the image characteristics (RBR and luminance) using the red, green, and blue (RGB) brightness value of the area in which the solar zenith angle (SZA) was less than 80°, to calculate the cloud cover. …”

UV-radiation Induced Disruption of Dry-Cavities in Human γD-crystallin Results in Decreased Stability and Faster Unfolding by Xia, Zhen, Yang, Zaixing, Huynh, Tien, King, Jonathan Alan, Zhou, Ruhong

“…Age-onset cataracts are believed to be expedited by the accumulation of UV-damaged human γD-crystallins in the eye lens. Here we show with molecular dynamics simulations that the stability of γD-crystallin is greatly reduced by the conversion of tryptophan to kynurenine due to UV-radiation, consistent with previous experimental evidences. …”
