Research Paper: Incidence of refractive error and analysis.
Mr Konstantopoulos's research has predominantly focused on the clinical applications of optical coherence tomography imaging of the cornea. His work led to the award of a doctor of philosophy (PhD) degree from the University of Southampton. Current clinical research interests include: corneal imaging and quantification; refractive errors and.
Background: Refractive errors are a major cause of defective visual acuity in all age groups. Spectacles are the traditional and most widely used method of optical correction among all age groups. The main objective was to study the perception about refractive surgery among undergraduate medical students with refractive errors and their preferred method of refractive correction. Methods: A.
This research paper examines the five causes of vision loss: Cataracts, Glaucoma, Diabetic Retinopathy, Refractive Error, and Age related macular degeneration. Cataract Cataract is one of the most common eye diseases among the elderly. Cataract is an ophthalmic disease associated with clouding of the eye's lens and causing different degrees of visual disturbances.
Symptoms of refractive errors. In the event of a visual error, you will see clearly in either short or long distance. Some look unclear both in the short and long run. You may also have other symptoms of refractive errors such as feeling tired in the eyes, pee, blinking a lot and getting a headache. Different types of vision errors.

Research indicates that some 50%-80% of children with Down syndrome have refractive errors but the rate varies in different ethnic populations and tends to increase with age during school years. In infancy their vision is not different from other children. However, many typically developing children who have early refractive errors improve over time without treatment during the preschool years.
