1.	Refractive Errors (Refractive Error) 08/01/2004 - "A regression study was performed in order to establish the relationships between corneal asphericity and refractive error, as well as other ocular optical components related to the emmetropization mechanism of the eye. " 06/01/1999 - "This study investigated refractive error and optical component changes in a group of 142 Hong Kong schoolchildren from age 6 to 17 years over a 2-year period between 1991 and 1993. " 11/01/2013 - "Examinations of visual acuity, refractive errors, and optical components and measurement of choroidal thickness. " 10/01/2012 - "Correlations between magnitude of refractive error and other optical components in Korean myopes." 07/15/2011 - "Changes to the ring represent the axial displacements of the cardinal points of the visual optical system of an eye that are caused when a spectacle lens compensates for the ametropia. "
2.	Low Vision (Subnormal Vision) 11/01/2005 - "This descriptive study of participants in vision rehabilitation service examines the effect of specific vision rehabilitation services (low vision clinical services, skills training, counseling, optical device use, and adaptive device use) on change in depression among a sample of older adults with age-related vision impairments. " 12/01/2012 - "A system of comprehensive eye examination at the time of school enrollment would allow students with low vision to use their available vision to the fullest, encourage print reading over braille, ensure appropriate placement, and promote timely adoption and proper usage of optical device." 01/01/2012 - "To compare, in relation to the cause of visual impairment, the possibility of rehabilitation, the corrective systems already in use and the finally prescribed optical devices in highly myopic patients with low vision. " 01/01/2012 - "Optical devices in highly myopic eyes with low vision: a prospective study." 04/01/2008 - "The findings indicate that standard low-vision rehabilitation programs, conventional in-clinic assessments, and optical devices are effective ways of managing and living with vision loss. "
3.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 03/01/2014 - "In addition, such systems use bulky, high power and expensive optical components which impede their widespread use in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where epithelial cancer related death is disproportionately high. " 12/01/2012 - "The optical system holds potential to ensure precise patient positioning and reduced CBCT frequency in tumor locations with fixed relation to surface structures." 01/01/2012 - "It was shown that the use of optical devices with the variable visual field angle makes it possible to significantly reduce the duration of the surgical intervention, facilitates orientation in the difficult-of-access regions , and ensures adequate control during the removal of neoplasms at the basis of the skull." 01/01/2011 - "Nonionizing sources, such as ultrasound and optical systems, and electromagnetic devices have been introduced to monitor or track the patient and/or tumor positions during treatment. " 11/01/2010 - "The high sensitivity and high specificity of the neurotoxin-mediated upconversion nanoprobes and the simplification of the required optical device for tumor visualization suggest an approach that may help improve the effectiveness of the diagnostic and therapeutic modalities available for tumor patients."
4.	Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) 10/15/2010 - "There are many factors involved in optimizing discrimination using optical filtering aids, including, but not limited to, the detector response, optical throughput of the system, optical properties of the samples, and optical properties of the materials for sensitizing films/filters. " 09/01/2006 - "We propose that these differential effects result from the fact that optical devices optimize residual vision and thus allow for greater continuity in the way tasks are accomplished (i.e., reading still performed visually), whereas use of adaptive aids (e.g., talking books) involves learning new methods in order to compensate for lost functions and thus is not as desirable either functionally or psychologically." 08/01/1992 - "[Initial experiences with rigid angled optical systems as intubation aids in difficult intubation]." 08/01/1986 - "A review of the many non-optical devices is discussed including relative size devices, writing and communication aids, posturing and positioning aids, illumination control and non-optical sensory substitution devices. " 09/01/1979 - "Recommended aids for ciopsy or polypectomy are the 30 degrees-optical system of bronchoscopy or the gastroscope, each with its forceps."
5.	Shock 12/01/2009 - "However, improved radiologic imaging, better optical systems and endoscopic devices, and the introduction of minimally invasive therapeutic options have allowed the development of conservative gland-preserving techniques for managing salivary gland obstructions, including extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, operative sialoendoscopy, video-assisted transoral and transcervical stone removal, and ductal rehabilitation through interventional radiology and sialoendoscopy. " 06/01/2011 - "Experiments are conducted in a shock-tube apparatus equipped with a schlieren-based optical system to monitor the interaction, and numerical simulations are carried out using an in-house computer code to simulate similar problems. " 10/01/2010 - "In view of problems such as field poor shock resistance, low target identification rate, low real-time and so on in mechanical scanning optical system, a non-scanning target identification remote sensing system was designed using the multi-spectrum separation algorithm. " 12/01/2008 - "Time-resolved visualizations of the flow field under investigation are obtained using a high-speed schlieren optical system and the motion of the shock wave is determined by means of digital image processing. " 04/01/2007 - "The system consists of the Faraday-type electromagnetic sensors to measure impactor velocity, optical system with high-speed streak camera to measure shock-wave velocities, and the delay trigger system with self-adjustable pre-event pulse generator.
