Amblyopia. Anisometropia is a condition in which a person's eyes have substantially differing refractive power. [ 1] Generally, a difference in power of one diopter (1D) is the threshold for diagnosis of the condition. [ 2][ 3] Patients may have up to 3D of anisometropia before the condition becomes clinically significant due to headache, eye ...
Nigrospora sphaerica is an airborne filamentous fungus in the phylum Ascomycota. It is found in soil, air, and plants as a leaf pathogen. [ 2] It can occur as an endophyte where it produces antiviral and antifungal secondary metabolites. [ 3] Sporulation of N. sphaerica causes its initial white coloured colonies to rapidly turn black. [ 1]
Other terminology include anisometropia, when the two eyes have unequal refractive power, [15] and aniseikonia which is when the magnification power between the eyes differ. [16] Refractive errors are typically measured using three numbers: sphere, cylinder, and axis. [17] Sphere: This number denotes the strength of the lens needed to correct ...

Anisocoria is a condition characterized by an unequal size of the eyes' pupils. Affecting up to 20% of the population, anisocoria is often ...
A German infection expert on Friday called for existing mpox vaccine supplies to be shipped to Africa, where they would have the greatest potential to tackle the disease, even after a case of a ...
Other symptoms can include eyestrain, headaches, and trouble driving at night. [1] Astigmatism often occurs at birth and can change or develop later in life. [5] If it occurs in early life and is left untreated, it may result in amblyopia. [2] The cause of astigmatism is unclear; however, it is believed to be partly related to genetic factors.
03:31. Another study is raising concern about the safety of the widely used sugar alcohol sweetener erythritol, a low-calorie sugar substitute found in “keto-friendly” foods, baked goods and ...
Powdery mildew is a fungal disease that affects a wide range of plants. Powdery mildew diseases are caused by many different species of ascomycete fungi in the order Erysiphales. Powdery mildew is one of the easier plant diseases to identify, as the signs of the causal pathogen are quite distinctive. Infected plants display white powdery spots ...
