Pseudoaccommodation and progressive addition lenses.

The limitations of traditional multifocal lenses to replace normal ocular accommodation are well known. The recent development of progressive addition lenses circumvent many of those problems, furnishing smoothly varying power in desired amounts for various distances and allowing freedom from distracting lines. Optical characteristics, screening considerations, prescribing and fitting requirements, and the advantages and limitations of progressive addition lenses are discussed.

[Idiopathic varus gonarthrosis: diminished nociceptive vs. unchanged somatosensory sensitivity].

Neuromuscular control deficits are supposed to contribute to the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Pain measurements were performed to clarify whether nociceptive afferents differ between OA patients and healthy subjects. Thermal pain thresholds were significantly higher in OA subjects as compared to controls, but there was no difference in perceptual thresholds after electrical stimulation. Lateralization, gender, site of OA changes, previous operations, or medication did not affect these findings.
