Beautiful new study by Michael Bok, Macali & Garm on the high-resolution eyes of the enigmatic alciopid annelids, from Ponza island.
"Our results show that the eyes of alciopids possess the anatomical, morphological, and physiological properties requisite for high resolution tasks and object vision" https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2024.02.055 #annelid#Evolution#eye@biology@mikebok
@AmiW@Rupher eigentlich der Schatten des Netzes, durch das sie auf die Welt blicken muß, nämlich der Burka.
Einen Augenarzt braucht diese Frau grade nicht.
Aber unseren Blick.
@xjoe@Rupher Sie ist in Indien und völlig Burka-los. Sie will nur auf Augenvorsorge hinweisen. Ständig kontrollieren und bei Veränderungen zum Arzt gehen.
Love them! I have many Helios lenses from KMZ, Valdai and BeLOMO (44M-4 and 44-2 versions). I plan to make a Petzval modification to one of them. Moreover, I have been making Sony E adapters for the lens from Smena-8m.
The Bates eye method is an alternative therapy that purports to "cure" defective #eyesight and diseases of the #eye by means of specific exercises. It is based on the work and theories of William Horatio Bates, a medical doctor and eye specialist practicing in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Although rejected and later soundly debunked by his peers, Bates's method was readily adopted into the alternative medicine and health freedom scenes, where it became interwoven with nutritional and other pseudoscience in the hands of early "health fad" figureheads such as Bernarr Macfadden and Gayelord Hauser.
In my teens, I heard vaguely about "eye exercises" and (as a very myopic kid) wanted to try them. I found a Bates book in my local library, but even as a junior high student, I knew that the anatomy of the human eye didn't line up with Bates's description. Turned out, he was working from fish eyes (which have crystalline, inflexible lenses).
