  • Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the research trends of Ophthalmic Optic by targeting the papers published in the Journal of Korean Ophthalmic Optics Society and serve it as a basis for future researches. Methods: This study was conducted through a statistical analysis of the general characteristics, researcher characteristics, research characteristics and the research trends from total 990 papers, from the first issue to the last issue in 2014, published in the Journal of Korean Ophthalmic Optics Society. Results: Most common number of the authors of the published papers were two or three, respectively 26.8%. Most of the lead authors belong to the schools in Jeolla-do province (31.3%). Most of the educational system of which lead authors belong to is four-year-course system (43.0%). Most common research methods were optometric tests (40.9%). The most common subjects of researches are about the field of optometry (29.8%). The study shows that there were significant differences in the research methods depending on the school systems of the universities to which the lead authors belong (p=0.000). There also were significant differences in the school systems of the universities to which the lead authors belong, and research methods depending on the research subjects (p=0.000). There were meaningful differences according to the period divisions (1996 to 2004 and 2005 to 2014), i.e. the number of authors has been growing, and it is the same case for the number of the authors who belong to four-year-course universities (p=0.000). The number of papers on optometry and contact lenses have increase. The benefits of the research funds have also increased (p<0.005). In addition, the number of the lead authors in the Seoul and Chungcheong province have increased (p=0.000). Conclusions: For the development of the Ophthalmic Optics, it is necessary to broaden the stratum of researchers and deal with various research topics, And joint efforts between eyewear industry and academia and international cooperations are needed.

  • 가입도 1.00D 미만의 초기 노안을 대상으로 푸쉬업과 플리퍼 방법에 의한 조절훈련이 가입도 측정값을 감소시킬 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 조절훈련은 12주간 매일 home vision training을 실시하였고, 일주일 간격으로 조절력, 조절지체, 조절용이성 및 가입도 검사를 실시하였다. 푸쉬업 훈련과 플리퍼 훈련 결과, 가입도는 0.125D~0.375D 유의하게 감소되었고, 푸쉬업 훈련이 플리퍼 훈련보다 가입도 감소효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 푸쉬업 훈련과 플리퍼 훈련은 조절력을 향상시켜 초기 노안이 필요로 하는 가입도를 감소시킬 수 있으며, 이와 같은 상태를 유지하기 위해서는 지속적인 훈련이 필요할 것으로 나타났다.

  • 본 연구는 착색렌즈의 광투과율에 따른 명소시 대비감도의 변화를 분석하여 색렌즈를 착용할 때 색상에 따른 적절한 광투과율 기준을 제시하고자 하였다. 정상 시기능을 가진 남자 24명과 여자 13명을 대상으로, 광투과율 80~90%, 60~80%, 43~60%, 30~43%로 착색된 4개의 색렌즈(회색, 갈색, 적색, 녹색)를 순서대로 착용시키고 F.A.C.T. 시표를 이용하여 대비감도 검사를 실시하였다. 검사 결과, 광투과율이 감소될수록 대비감도는 감소되었고, 시감도는 갈색이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났고, 반대로 적색이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 대비감도 검사결과를 고려한 색상별 권장 광투과율은 갈색, 회색과 녹색 38% 이상, 적색 52% 이상인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들로 보아 일상생활에서 눈을 보호할 목적으로 색렌즈를 선택할 때 색상과 그 색상에 적절한 광투과율이 고려되어야 한다.

  • The cause of poor visual acuity was connected to the damage by the ocular trauma related. Especially the most cause of visual disorder was identified as irregular pupil by ocular damage. Therefore most patients stopped the wearing of the contact lens immediately by the visual decrease effects from irregular pupil disorder. But we had suggested that the contact lens wear was a very intensive visual therapy. We had identified the visual recover from several tests using the contact lens treatment.

  • Some ocular complications were connected to the contamination by the contact lens related. Especially the most cause of ocular complications was a microorganism from several processing of infections. Therefore the patients stopped the contact lens wear immediately by the side effects of ocular pathology. We had analyzed the microorganism from the laboratory. It was identified as mixed growth of the Chryseamonas meningosepticum and Enterobacter sp.

  • In this paper, we propose a nonlinear maximum average correlation height (MACH) filter for information authentication of photon counting double random phase encryption (DRPE). To enhance the security of DRPE, photon counting imaging can be applied because of its sparseness. However, under severely photon-starved conditions, information authentication of DRPE may not be implemented successfully. To visualize the photon counting DRPE, a three-dimensional imaging technique such as integral imaging can be used. In addition, a nonlinear MACH filter can be utilized for helping the information authentication. Therefore, in this paper, we use integral imaging and nonlinear MACH filter to implement the information authentication of photon counting DRPE. To verify our method, we implement optical experiments and computer simulation.

  • The effect of the M-window color mixing bar on the characteristics of color mixing and hot spots in the edge-lit backlight employing red (R), green (G), blue (G) light emitting diodes (LED) were studied in terms of the structure of the M-window color mixing bar. The rays from RGB LEDs entering the M-window bar were mixed by internal reflection and scattering inside the M-window bar so that the hot spots and color separation were minimized. The M-window bar was designed and fabricated and the simulation results are matched quite well to experimental data.

  • An advanced microcolumn is proposed which adopts a modified einzel lens structure. The newly designed einzel lens is composed of four electrodes. The two center electrodes are specially designed electrostatic quadrupole (EQ) einzel lenses having keyhole instead of circular apertures. We constructed the advanced microcolumn with the EQ-einzel lenses, and operated the newly designed microcolumn in single lens mode and double-lens mode. The preliminary results show that the EQ-einzel lens can improve the performance of the micro-column for large sample applications.

  • The analysis of cornea morphology using corneal topographers is a clinical practice for the diagnosis of keratoconus in contact lens fitting. The recently technique has developed with the possibility of achieving a great number of measuring points of both anterior and posterior corneal surfaces in cornea. Also these data are used to extract a series of topographic valuation indices that permit to offer the most exact clinical diagnosis of keratoconus in contact lens fitting. This study describes the technologies in which current corneal topographers are based on the morphological characteristics that the keratoconus status observe on corneal surface. Therefore, this paper can provide that the analysis of corneal topographers applied for the diagnosis of keratoconus in contact lens fitting.

  • Biocompatible hydrogels from 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) monomer containing various amount of alginate in the presence and absence of hydrophilic methacrylic acid (MAA) were synthesized in order for biomedical application. The antimicrobial effect and interaction with proteins for hydrogels were investigated in this study. MAA was introduced because it was expected to increase the amount of water content in the polymer which is an important factor for biocompatibility, and alginate was expected to enhance the antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial effect against S. aureus and E. coli increased for all hydrogels as the amount of alginate and MAA contained. Presence of MAA further enhances the antimicrobial effect. Amount of adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) increased with increasing concentration of alginate whether MAA was present or not. Contrarily, the amount of lysozyme was not affected with increasing alginate concentration in the absence of MAA, while it decreased in the presence of MAA.
