Abstract Background To explore the dynamic distribution of pupil size and center,the eccentricity distribution of angle kappa, and its correlation with other biomechanics about suitable for excimer laser refractive surgery. Methods Randomly selected 225 patients (407 eyes) who underwent femtosecond laser combined with excimer laser in situkeratomileusis,preoperative use of Wavelight Allegro Topolyzer Corneal Topography ( Wavelight Laser Technologies AG, Erlangen, Germany ) to measure the pupil size and center position, the German Wavelight EX500 excimer Laser (500Hz) records the deviation between the pupil center and the coaxially sighted corneal light reflex when the patient is supine. Results The average displacement distribution of P-Dist (the eccentricity between the pupil center and the coaxially sighted corneal light reflex point) is 0.225 ± 0.102 mm, and 80% of the eyes are ≤ 0.30 mm.The coaxially sighted corneal light reflex point is mainly deviated to the superior temporal side of the corneal center (34%).Under the dark light condition, the x-axis of the left eye was: -0.046 ± 0.091 mm, the x-axis of the right eye was: -0.152 ± 0.084 mm, with statistical difference ( P = 0.015) (the right eye shifted to the temporal side), the y-axis direction had no statistical change ( P = 0.062). The WTW was positively correlated with changes of pupil diameter (dark pupil diameter-bright pupil diameter) ( r = 0.270, P <0.001).The SE and measured centroid shift was negative correlated ( r = - 0.214, P = 0.002). Conclusion The pupil of the left eye becomes smaller, the anterior chamber becomes shallower, and the angle kappa increases relative to the right eye.In patients with large WTW, a darker light environment is maintained during the operation to improve the efficiency of pupil matching.The dynamic change of angle kappa in high myopia population is small.

(1) Background: The purpose of the study is to present a simple theoretical account of the effect of translation of coma and spherical aberrations (SA) on refractive error and higher order aberrations. (2) Methods: A computer software algorithm was implemented based on previously published methods. The effect of translation (0 to +1 mm) was analyzed for SA (0 to +2 µm) and coma (0 to +2 µm) for a circular pupil of 6 mm, without any rotation or scaling effect. The relationship amongst Zernike representations of various aberrations was analyzed under the influence of translation. (3) Results: The translation of +0.40 µm of SA (C[4,0]) by +0.25 mm with a pupil diameter of 6mm resulted in induction of tilt (C[1,1]), −0.03D defocus (C[2,0]), +0.03D astigmatism (C[2,2]) and +0.21 µm coma (C[3,1]). The translation of +0.4 µm of coma (C[3,1]) by +0.25 mm with a pupil diameter of 6 mm resulted in induction of tilt (C[1,1]), −0.13D defocus (C[2,0]) and +0.13D astigmatism (C[2,2]). A theoretical quantitative relationship between SA, coma, astigmatism and defocus is presented under the influence of translation. (4) Conclusion: The results can act as a guide for the clinician, in order to readily assess theoretical impact of wavefront map translation from pupil center to the visual axis. The resultant refractive coupling has to be taken into consideration especially when treating eyes with an abnormal corneal shape and/or large pupil center to corneal vertex chord.

Through an urban tunnel-driving experiment, this paper studies the changing trend of drivers’ visual characteristics in tunnels. A Tobii Pro Glasses 2 wearable eye tracker was used to measure pupil diameter, scanning time, and fixation point distribution of the driver during driving. A two-step clustering algorithm and the data-fitting method were used to analyze the experimental data. The results show that the univariate clustering analysis of the pupil diameter change rate of drivers has poor discrimination because the pupil diameter change rate of drivers in the process of “dark adaptation” is larger, while the pupil diameter change rate of drivers in the process of “bright adaptation” is relatively smooth. The univariate and bivariate clustering results of drivers’ pupil diameters were all placed into three categories, with reasonable distribution and suitable differentiation. The clustering results accurately corresponded to different locations of the tunnel. The clustering method proposed in this paper can identify similar behaviors of drivers at different locations in the transition section at the tunnel entrance, the inner section, and the outer area of the tunnel. Through data-fitting of drivers’ visual characteristic parameters in different tunnels, it was found that a short tunnel, with a length of less than 1 km, has little influence on visual characteristics when the maximum pupil diameter is small, and the percentage of saccades is relatively low. An urban tunnel with a length between 1 and 2 km has a significant influence on visual characteristics. In this range, with the increase in tunnel length, the maximum pupil diameter increases significantly, and the percentage of saccades increases rapidly. When the tunnel length exceeds 2 km, the maximum pupil diameter does not continue to increase. The longer the urban tunnel, the more discrete the distribution of drivers’ gaze points. The research results should provide a scientific basis for the design of urban tunnel traffic safety facilities and traffic organization.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of ultrasound level during phacoemulsification on pupil dynamics. Methods: Comparative retrospective study on patients who underwent routine cataract surgery at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital. Clinical parameters, anterior chamber measurements, axial length, surgeon grade, time of surgery, level of ultrasound used (cumulative dissipated energy, CDE), intra- and post-operative complications were collected. Pupil diameters were collected before and 4 ± 1 weeks after surgery in static scotopic, mesopic, photopic pupil conditions. Also, pupil dynamic measurements after luminous stimulus were recorded. Changes in static pupil diameters, relative dilation at 3.5 s after luminous stimulus, and time to reach 75% and 95% of maximum dilation were measured. Results: Forty-eight eyes of 24 patients (13 males) were included with a mean age of 73.1 ± 14.6 years. Mean CDE value was 18.11 ± 10.56. Mean scotopic pupil diameters decreased by 0.24 ± 0.48 mm ( p = 0.021) in the operated eye. Significant correlation was found between reduction in scotopic pupil diameter and CDE ( p = 0.05). A generalized linear model confirmed that the level of CDE was significantly associated with reduction in scotopic pupil diameter ( p = 0.026). Patients who underwent surgeries with lower CDE (0 < CDE ⩽ 10 and 10 < CDE ⩽ 20) did not experience significant changes in scotopic pupil diameter after surgery ( p = 0.28 and p = 0.79, respectively) as opposed to those with higher CDE (CDE > 20; p = 0.03). Conclusion: Phacoemulsification cataract surgery and the cumulative dissipated energy may be associated with changes in pupil behaviour.

The reciprocal interaction between the accommodation and pupil control systems of the human eye is examined from a theoretical point of view. The system, which is responsible for maintaining pupil diameter at a value which is a compromise between conflicting requirements, is represented by a control model, and is considered in terms of the concept of a performance index.
