Описание: The book Sides of the Same Coin is the true story of a one-time social service worker, who lost employment and moved into his mother`s home to help care for her amidst mental deterioration and aging. After a major disagreement between siblings, this once-proud worker, who had serviced clients within all walks of the social service realm, was unceremoniously evicted by people who had relied upon his help countless times in their journeys through adult life. Such assistance was even given to their children more times than imaginable. It was during these times, that this worker was unceremoniously told he was no longer welcome in his mother`s home anymore, and since he assisted clients with their housing needs, he could use his knowledge to find suitable housing for himself. That worker was me. This was the start of a venture I never thought I would ever face. I too was appalled at the little assistance other clients received in the shelter system. This will only become worse due to the pandemic. And for the multitude of those who have fallen behind in rent payments, I believe it will only be a matter of time before the courts evict countless such individuals, and give them no choice but to seek false help from the public shelter systems. Read this book and learn what you never expected to see, face or have to experience in your lifetime. The only suitable name for the New York Shelter System is a living hell.

Описание: The cornea serves as the gateway into the eye for external images. Maintenance of corneal shapes and transparency is critical for refraction. Small changes in the smoothness of the corneal surface or in the total thickness of the cornea can lead to visual distortion. Recently, however, refractive surgery for the transparent cornea has been introduced. In this procedure, the curvature of the cornea is modified either by cutting the stroma or by laser ablation of normal corneal tissue. Given the clinical efficacy of refractive surgery, it is important to understand the anatomical and physiological structure of the cornea such as corneal collagen cross-linking. Multiple commercial femtosecond lasers have been cleared for use by the US Food and Drug Administration for ophthalmic surgery, including use in creating corneal flaps in LASIK surgery. The newest application of femtosecond lasers in ophthalmology is in cataract surgery. In LASIK surgery, all surgery procedures are done in cornea. In cataract surgery, the cornea is also cut with a femtosecond laser. Over the last decade, the field of femtosecond eye surgery has expanded rapidly, supporting the advantages of combined high-ablation precision and minimized collateral tissue effects. One of the most promising applications for femtosecond laser eye surgery has been corneal surgery, namely laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) surgery, where the high-pressure laser plasma non-thermally dissociates the dense corneal tissue, thereby enabling lamellar cornea procedures with minimized side effects with the subsequent excimer laser shaping the corneal surface. Millions of people worldwide have been patients for LASIK surgery and have benefited from new forms of technology. LASIK surgery includes three parts: wavefront detection, femtosecond laser flap creation, and excimer laser cornea correction. Some parts of this book focus on femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK surgery, including basic research for femtosecond laser eye surgery and tissue imaging. The newest application of femtosecond lasers in ophthalmology is cataract surgery. Currently, there are a few lasers at or near the point of commercial release, including LenSx (Alcon Laboratories Inc., Fort Worth, Texas), Catalys (Abbott Medical Optics, Santa Ana, California), LensAR (LensAR Inc., Orlando, Florida), Victus (Technolas Perfect Vision and Bausch & Lomb, Rochester, New York), and Femto LDV (Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems AG, Port, Switzerland). All laser systems share a common platformwhich includes an anterior-segment imaging system, patient interface, and femtosecond laser to imageto calculate and deliver the laser pulses. Some parts of this book explain the principle of OCT-guided femtosecond laser cataract surgery. The combination of femtosecond laser surgery and OCT imaging simultaneously guides the development of next generation femtosecond surgical lasers in cataract surgery and explores femtosecond laser surgical strategies.

Описание: A concise review and comprehensive guide to improving cataract surgery outcomesSignificant advances have been made in refractive surgery in the last decade. Eye surgeons today can leverage many cutting-edge intraocular lens (IOL) technologies such as multifocal, extended depth of field, toric, accommodating, and aspheric. Concurrent innovations including optics, phacoemulsification, superior keratometry and biometry, and posterior cornea evaluation have resulted in improved cataract surgery outcomes. Recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of cataracts have dramatically improved patient satisfaction following cataract surgery, yet common and rare complications still occur such as dry eye, endophthalmitis, and retinal detachment. Furthermore, only 80% of cataract surgery procedures bring patients to within 0.5 diopters of their needed refraction.Optimizing Suboptimal Results Following Cataract Surgery: Refractive and Non-Refractive Management presents the latest techniques for achieving optimal results and overcoming complications in cataract surgery. Internationally renowned ophthalmic surgery pioneers Priya Narang and William Trattler have created an unparalleled guide to overcoming complex cases and residual refractive errors. The book starts with six chapters on suboptimal causes and considerations, followed by dedicated sections covering refractive and non-refractive enhancements. The fourth section features chapters on keratoconus, cystoid macular edema, endophthalmitis, toxic anterior segment syndrome, and vitritis, as well as intraoperative aberrometry, futuristic approaches and advancements, and telescopic IOLs.Key HighlightsRefractive enhancement procedures including corneal-based procedures such as astigmatic keratotomy, LASIK, PRK, and SMILE; IOL exchange; piggyback IOL; toric IOL; and premium IOLs and associated problemsNonrefractive enhancement procedures including dysphotopsias and surgical management, bullous keratopathy and endothelial keratoplasty, complex IOL issues such as malpositioned IOL and capsular bag, and posterior capsular rupture and IOL lens implantationPractical tips and steps to prevent and manage undesired outcomes30 surgical videos posted online highlight a diverse array of complex cases and technical advances to help prevent suboptimal resultsOphthalmologists, ophthalmology residents, fellows, and subspecialists will greatly benefit from the significant pearls and knowledge presented in this indispensable cataract surgery resource.This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.

Описание:

This book presents a unique approach not found in any other text for those looking to improve the clinical results of refractive surgery by gaining a better understanding of corneal biomechanics and the instrumentation related to it. Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides authoritative coverage of the interactions of the cornea and the bioinstrumentation, such as corneal topography, pachymetry, aberrometers, tonometry and optical coherence tomography.

Organized in an easy-to-read manner, Corneal Biomechanics and Refractive Surgery is designed for refractive surgeons and general ophthalmologists alike and describes the biomechanical role of the corneal tissue and how each part is affected in refractive surgery. Additionally, showing what the bioinstrumentation can measure, how models can improve understanding of the interaction between biomechanics, bioinstrumentation, and refractive surgery, and how these models and bioinstrumentation together can improve the refractive results, are also discussed.
