The Bates method is an ineffective and potentially dangerous alternative therapy aimed at improving eyesight.Eye-care physician William Horatio Bates (1860–1931) held the erroneous belief that the extraocular muscles caused changes in focus and that "mental strain" caused abnormal action of these muscles; hence he believed that relieving such "strain" would cure defective vision.
Fluorobenzaldehyde can be used as a synthetic intermediate because the fluorine can be replaced via oxidation reaction. [1] Due to the aldehyde group, the fluorobenzaldehydes can be used to make a variety of schiff base compounds through a condensation reaction , some of which have antimicrobial properties.
2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzaldehyde is prepared by oxidation of 2-chloro-6-fluorotolulene by chromyl chloride. [3] It reacts with sodium hydroxide to give a mixture of 2-chloro-6-fluorobenzene and 6-chlorosalicaldehyde. [4] 2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzaldehyde is used in the production of the antiseptics dicloxacillin and flucloxacillin.

Previously, treating damaged eyes with epidermal growth factor induced Muller glia proliferation in the mouse eye, but neuron generation only occurred with concurrent overexpression of Ascl1. [9] More recently, robust Muller glia proliferation and subsequent neuronal differentiation has been seen using the alpha 7 nAChR agonist, PNU-282987. [ 10 ]

Any condition that causes the eyes to itch can contribute to darker circles due to rubbing or scratching the skin around them. Hay fever sufferers in particular will notice under-eye "smudges" during the height of the allergy season. Atopy can lead to frequent rubbing of the eyes, leading to local inflammation and increased pigmentation. [4]
Blue light, a type of high-energy light, is part of the visible light spectrum. High-energy visible light (HEV light) is short-wave light in the violet/blue band from 400 to 450 nm in the visible spectrum, which has a number of purported negative biological effects, namely on circadian rhythm and retinal health (blue-light hazard), which can lead to age-related macular degeneration.
