Researchers at the International Centre for Translational Eye Research (ICTER) have developed a prototype imaging system that can simultaneously track the cornea’s mechanical response at nine locations. The technology marks an important step toward more accurate, noncontact assessment of corneal biomechanics and could improve early detection and monitoring of disorders such as keratoconus.

Peripheral vision helps readers process skipped words in 250 milliseconds
Reading seems like a straightforward process. The eyes scan the words, and the brain turns them into meaning. But it’s not always that simple. Readers regularly skip words, sometimes without
