Disorder characterizes most of the materials that surround us in nature. Despite their great technological importance, materials with ordered crystalline structures are relatively rare. Examples of disordered materials, however, abound, and their forms can be as varied as their number. The paper on which these words are printed has a disordered structure composed of a highly interconnected network of fibers. It has also been coated with particulate materials to improve its properties and the visibility of the ink. The reading glasses you may require to focus on these words are composed of a glass or polymer material that is disordered on a molecular level. Even the structure of your hand holding this magazine is disordered. These and virtually all other disordered materials are typically parameterized by a characteristic length scale. Above this length scale, the material is homogeneous and the effects of the disorder are not directly manifest; below this characteristic length the disorder of the structure dominates, directly affecting the properties.The range of characteristic length scales for the disordered materials around us is immense. For the glass or polymer of your reading glasses, it is microscopic; the disorder is apparent only at the molecular level, while above this level the material is homogeneous. For the paper on which this magazine is printed, the scale is larger; the paper is white partly because the disordered fiber network has within it structures that are comparable in size to the wavelength of light, resulting in strong scattering of the light.

Proactive Support

Technological advances allow networked and context-aware computer systems to be integrated into devices, environments, everyday objects, and garments. The idea is that such smart environments and artifacts are able to perceive the users’ context and activity, anticipate their needs, and act to provide proactive support. Old-age ubiquitous computing has the potential to increase the length of time that both individuals and groups are able to lead independent lives, even at an advanced age. Examples of this range from smart reading-glasses that are capable of reading articles to the user, all the way to body implants designed to increase human perceptive, cognitive, and motor capabilities.

Presbyopia Correction

Proper presbyopia correction has become increasingly relevant for clinical practice in recent years. This problem arises from both the population ageing as a whole and the need for a higher vision quality that directly affects the quality of patients’ life. There are many factors that require comfortable and high-quality vision correction with soft contact lenses, such as active sports, the desire not to change usual activities and feel younger, the reluctance to use extra reading glasses and glasses in general. We have to look for soft contact lenses with the wettest surface, lenses that can maintain tear film for as long as possible due to following reasons: disruption of eye surface’s wetting; dry eye syndrome, that sometimes arise with age; medicine use, one of the side effects of which is usually the reduction of tear production. The review provides recommendations for the fitting of multifocal contact lenses through the example of Biofinity Multifocal with different designs: distance-center and near-center. Conclusion: It is possible not only to achieve high vision quality at all distances in patients, but also to maintain their accustomed lifestyle and to minimize their astenopic complaints with the help of proper presbyopia correction.
