We have surveyed test methods for ophthalmic lens coatings and compared the coating quality of lenses supplied by manufactures. Plastic ophthalmic lenses are produced in increasingly larger volumes. However, their softness have need resistant coatings absolutely essential in most cases. Coating lenses are typically evaluated in physical and chemical properties through random selection from produced lenses. No international standard test methods for ophthalmic lenses exist for issues such as adhesion, abrasion resistance, hardness, chemical and hot water resistance with exception of transmittance. We have learned that there is a great deal of confusion regarding the methods employed in the various tests for ophthalmic coating lenses. For this reason, test methods for ophthalmic lens coatings are needed making all of international or domestic standards available.

Purpose. This study was performed on survey related optician's perception of NCS and required jobs to develop curriculum of department of ophthalmic optics Methods. This study was to evaluate the questionnaire survey of 63 opticians working in Optometrist in Daegu Metropolitan City from November 1, 2016 to November 18, 2016. Results. As for the opticians who know about NCS, 23.8% of the respondents answered that the opticians' perception of NCS is very low. For the four required jobs of the technical part, less than 5 years of optometrists ; optometry 73.7% > fitting 47.4% > ophthalmic dispensing 36.8% > lensmeter 5.3%, more than 5 years and less than 10 years of optometrists ; optometry 84.6% > fitting 53.8% > lensmeter 46.2% > ophthalmic dispensing 38.5%, more than 10 years of optometrists ; optometry 67.7% > ophthalmic dispensing 51.4% > lensmeter 19.4% > fitting 16.1%. For the four required jobs of the management, less than 5 years of optometrists ; product 57.9% > service 47.4% > manners 10.6% > sales 5.3%, more than 5 years and less than 10 years of optometrists ; service 76.9% > product 53.9% > manners 46.2% > sales 38.5%, more than 10 years of optometrists ; service 45.2% > manners 42.0% > product 32.3% > sales 19.4%. Conclusions. Although there were 108 required jobs of the technical part and 94 required jobs of the management part, the technical level of the department of ophthalmic optics was satisfactory, but the classes of the management part were insufficient. It will be necessary to actively reflect the needs of industry through curriculums reform.

Purpose: Arteriovenous fistulas that involve the cavernous sinus often produce ophthalmologic symptoms and signs. Transvenous endovascular access is the method of choice for a carotid-cavernous sinus fistula. The superior ophthalmic vein is a safe and reasonable alternative route for the transvenous embolization of carotid-cavernous sinus fistula. We report a case of the embolization of a carotid-cavernous sinus fistula using the superior ophthalmic vein approach. Methods: A 58 year old female had conjunctival congestion, periocular pain and diplopia with a 2 month duration. Diagnostic orbital CT, brain MRI and cerebral angiography revealed a carotid-cavernous sinus fistula. The fistula occlusion was treated by coil embolization using the superior ophthalmic vein approach. Results: The initial presenting symptoms, conjunctival congestion, periocular pain and diplopia, decreased after surgery. Coil embolization via the superior ophthalmic vein approach was difficult because of the venous tortuosity and friability. During the follow up period, the patient was in a good condition without complications. Conclusion: Surgical exposure of the superior ophthalmic vein provides direct venous access to the cavernous sinus as well as an effective and safe treatment approach. The cooperation of the plastic surgeon and interventionist is a factor in successful treatment.

We can see that two images of reflection are observed on the surface of a ophthalmic lens. These are the image reflected from front surface and back surface of lens, respectively. The reflective image shows to be affect by surface refractive power of front and back surface of lens. Total refractive power of lens is calculated by refractive power of front and back surface of lens. Accordingly, the ratio of image on the lens surface is able to measure refractive power of ophthalmic lens without helping of the lensmeter. The ratio of two reflective image measured on the lens surface is compared with the calculated ratio by the power measurement.

This work presents experimental results on the electrical properties of hydrogenated amorphous carbon films(a-C : H) prepared by PECVD. Conductance of a-C: H was measured as a function of temperatures in the range of 100 to 423K. We studied two a -C: H films: one was well explanied by the Mott's variable range hopping(VRH) rule. But the other sample did not follow it. The conduction data of second sample were well fitted to Shimakawa's multi-phonon hopping(MPH) model according to which conductivity is proportional to Tm with m= 15~17. But, in our samples, m was 10~12.

Beagle is one of the most popular laboratory animal in a dog. We investigated the incidence of spontaneous ophthalmic disease in Beagles in order to make basic data for quality control of Beagles in Korea. We surveyed 389 beagles from 3 different farms. The average prevalence rate of ophthalmic diseases was 19.3%. The prevalence rate of cataracts was higher than any other ophthalmic diseases, 7.5% and then in order of corneal scar(2.1%), retinal hemorrhage(1.5%), post-inflammatory retinal change(1.5%), cherry eye(1.0%), distichiasis(0.8%), entropion(0.8%), hypoplastic optic disc(0.8%), conjunctivitis(0.5%), retinal dysplasia(0.5%), asteroid hyalosis(0.3%), congenital eye anomaly(0.3%), corneal lipidosis(0.3%), conjunctival hemorrhage(0.3%), lens capsule pigmentation(0.3%), persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (0.3%), posterior synechia(0.3%), eyelid tumor(0.3%) and uveal cyst(0.3%) were diagnosed. There was a slight difference between male(24.8%) and female(17.4%) in prevalence rate of ophthalmic disease. The incidence of spontaneous ophthalmic disease was increased with age. These data would be useful for using Beagles as laboratory animals and standard reference for quality control of dogs.

The rate of transmittance of the sunglasses sold at home is shown in this paper. Most of the lens treated with sunglasses turned out to be 0% in the range of the UV, but those made by some company to be 18%.

Purpose: The functional ophthalmic lenses containing fluorine-substituted aniline group (2,4-difluoroaniline, 2,6-difluoroaniline, 3,4-difluoroaniline) were manufactured and the physical and optical characteristics of copolymerized ophthalmic lens were investigated. Methods: HEMA (2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate), NVP (N-vinyl pyrrolidone), MA (methacrylic acid), the cross-linker EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) and the initiator AIBN (azobisisobutyronitrile) were used as a basic combination and fluorine-substituted aniline group (2,4-difluoroaniline, 2,6-difluoroaniline, 3,4-difluoroaniline) were used as additives for preparing the hydrogel soft contact lenses. The hydrogel ophthalmic lens was manufactured by cast mould method and the ophthalmic lenses were stored in a 0.9% NaCl normal saline for 24 hrs. Results: The optical transmittance of the sample with addition 2,4-difluoroaniline showed that the UV-B(9.8~51.4%), UV-A(58.8~79.2%) and visible transmittance(87.0~90.4%). In the case of 2,6-difluoroaniline were measured the UV-B(80.2~83.2%), UV-A(85.8~86.4%), and visible transmittance(90.8~91.4%). Also, the optical transmittance of ophthalmic lens containing 3,4-difluoroaniline were measured the UV-B transmittance of 3.8~30.4%, UV-A transmittance of 47.8%~74.4% and the visible transmittance of 86.2~91.0% respectively. Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, 2,4-difluoroaniline and 3,4-difluoroaniline can be used effectively as additive for UV-blocking ophthalmic contact lenses.
