Applications of Laser Spectroscopy Constitute a Vast Field, Which Is Difficult to Spectroscopy Cover Comprehensively in a Review
LASERS & OPTICS 151 many cases non-destructively. A variety of beam manipulation schemes are avail able for the irradiation of samples either directly or after preparation. The unique properties of laser radiation in terms of coherence, intensity and directionality permit remote chemical sensing, where the analytical equipment and the sample are separated by large distances, even of several kilometres. Absorption, and in particular differential absorption, can be utilised in long-path measurements, whereas elastic and inelastic backscatter- ing as well as fluorescence can be used for range-resolved radar-like measure ments (LIDAR: light detection and rang ing). Laser light can also be efficiently transported in optical fibres to remotely located measurement sites. Various prop erties of the fibre itself influence the laser light propagating through the fibre, thus Applications of Laser forming a basis for fibre optic sensors.

New Horizons Forum
Speeding the development of new therapies and diagnostics for glaucoma patients New Horizons Forum Friday, February 9, 2018 Palace Hotel, San Francisco, CA © Aerie Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Irvine, CA 92614 Follow the meeting on Twitter: #Glaucoma360 MLR-0002 Glaucoma Research Foundation thanks the following sponsors WELCOME for their generous support of Glaucoma 360 PLATINUM It is our sincere pleasure to welcome you to the 7th Annual Glaucoma 360: New Horizons Forum, hosted by Glaucoma Research Foundation. This important meeting provides a unique opportunity to bring together leaders in medicine, science, industry, venture capital, and the FDA to discuss emerging ideas in glaucoma and encourage collaboration to accelerate their development for clinical use. Since its establishment in 2012, this annual forum continues to grow and provide the ultimate opportunity to highlight important advances and facilitate networking between these essential groups. As a result, there are now more effective therapies and diagnostic tools in clinical practice today to help doctors manage the disease more effectively. But, unmet medical needs remain in glaucoma. Glaucoma Research Foundation is resolute in its mission to preserve vision and continue its role as a catalyst in the advancement of research towards new treatments and a cure. SILVER Glaucoma 360 would not be possible without the generous and selfless contributions of so many including: members of our Advisory Board, Program and Steering Committees who have volunteered their time to build an outstanding agenda; our dedicated sponsors who have helped to underwrite this event; our speakers, presenters, and panelists who are ready to share their expertise and unique perspectives; our attendees; the support of our Board of Directors and staff at Glaucoma Research Foundation; and the hard working team at The Palace Hotel. -

Belfield ABSTRACT Two-photon absorbing (2PA) materials has been widely studied for their highly localized excitation and nonlinear excitation efficiency. Application of 2PA materials includes fluorescence imaging, microfabrication, 3D data storage, photodynamic therapy, etc. Many materials have good 2PA photophysical properties, among which, the fluorenyl structure and its derivatives have attracted attention with their high 2PA cross-section and high fluorescence quantum yield. Herein, several compounds with 2PA properties are discussed. -

Lasers in Skin Cancer Treatment Podcast Audio Transcription
Lasers in Skin Cancer Treatment Podcast Audio Transcription Opening Welcome to Light Talk. A podcast series exclusively for members of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery. Light Talk supports the mission of ASLMS which is to promote excellence in patient care by advancing biomedical application of lasers and other energy-based technologies world-wide. We hope you enjoy this edition of Light Talk with our host, Dr. Nazanin Saedi. Discussion DR. NAZANIN SAEDI Hi, I’m Nazanin Saedi and I am here today with Dr. Anthony Rossi who is an assistant attending at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Anthony, thank you so much for joining us. DR. ANTHONY M. ROSSI Thanks for having me. DR. SAEDI So, Anthony, can you tell us a little bit about your research in using lasers to treat skin cancers? We often think of surgical options for our skin cancer patients, but how do lasers play a role? DR. ROSSI Sure so, you know, for certain patients who have early skin cancers like early superficial basal cell carcinomas, or squamous cell carcinoma in situ, some of these can be amenable to be treated with lasers instead of your traditional surgical approach. So, it’s really important to understand which ones to select and which ones not to treat. Right? We don’t want to treat very deep invasive, infiltrative basal cell with a very superficial laser because we will be missing the deeper component. But for these early lesions, and for patients who don’t necessarily want to have surgery, treating them with a CO2 laser which is what I have been doing, guided by confocal microscopy can really help us hone in on the areas that are positive and then ablate that tissue and then, which is really important, is follow up with them to make sure they aren’t having any regrowth. -
History of Cataract Surgery
History of Cataract Surgery A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye and can be addressed through a procedure that removes the affected lens and replaces it with a manmade lens known as an intraocular lens or IOL.1 Associated with improvements in vision, overall health, and cognitive and emotional well-being,2 cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure1 and is the most commonly performed surgery in the world.3 One of the oldest surgical procedures known, cataract surgery was first documented in the fifth century BC.4 1747 French ophthalmologist Jacques Daviel is credited 1998 Toric IOLs are rolled out to correct astigmatism.

In his Kelman Lecture,‘Challenges, Complications and Technology’, Dr Osher presented a potpourri of challenging cases and examples of complication management. He illustrated his presentation with one of the high quality videos for which he has become well known. One highlight of his talk was a description of new technology, not yet available, for microcoaxial phacoemulsification with torsional ultrasound using a newly designed tip. “Charlie Kelman was one of my heroes. He was a great inspiration to me as a young surgeon and over time we became very close friends” Dr Osher also paid tribute to the pioneering surgeon for whom the lecture was named, Charles Kelman MD, PhD. He has achieved worldwide recognition as a leader in “Charlie Kelman was one of my heroes. He was a great cataract surgery. He has designed many of the contemporary inspiration to me as a young surgeon and over time we became intraocular lenses and instruments used in cataract surgery, in very close friends,” he said. addition to developing new techniques in this subspecialty.

Icons of Ophthalmology 1969–2020
ICONS OF OPHTHALMOLOGY 1969–2020 A celebration of individuals who have made a difference to the world of ophthalmology and the 50th anniversary of the Bausch + Lomb Minims range Prescribing information can be found on page 24 onwards. Adverse event reporting instructions can be found on page 32 2 | ICONS OF OPHTHALMOLOGY BAUSCH + LOMB Foreword As Bausch + Lomb’s Business Director for Pharmaceuticals in the UK and Ireland, my role allows me to really understand just how important eye health is. It makes me proud to be able to say that through our Minims range we enable eye care professionals to perform procedures which improve the lives of patients – and it’s been doing so for the last fifty years. To mark the fiftieth anniversary of our Minims range, we launched the Icons of Ophthalmology initiative. A celebratory campaign designed to shine a spotlight on the importance of eye health in general, and specifically to showcase and honour ophthalmic practitioners who over the last five decades, have advanced eye health and care through their contributions and endeavours. I am delighted to share with you not only the Icons of Ophthalmology winners for each decade, but also the nominees. Each of which has been put forward by our Expert Panel - made up of ophthalmologists all of whom are very much at the top of their game. The winners have been voted for by eye care professionals across the UK. All of those nominated embody our mission at Bausch + Lomb, namely, to help people to see better and live better, and through this book we recognise their individual contributions, be it advances in regards to technique, training or technology; many of which remain relevant in 2020.
