Journal Article
Cairns, G., McGhee, C. N., Collins, M. J., Owens, H., & Gamble, G. D. (2002). Accuracy of Orbscan II slit-scanning elevation topography. Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 28(12), 2181-2187. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0886-3350%2802%2901504-3

Purpose: To establish the accuracy of Orbscan II (Orbtek Inc.) slit-scanning elevation topography in analyzing the anterior surface of complex test objects. Setting: Discipline of Ophthalmology, University of Auckland, Faculty of Medical and Health S... Read More about Accuracy of Orbscan II slit-scanning elevation topography.

Effect of SoftPerm lens wear on corneal thickness and topography: A comparison between keratoconic and normal corneae (2002)
Journal Article
Owens, H., Watters, G., & Gamble, G. (2002). Effect of SoftPerm lens wear on corneal thickness and topography: A comparison between keratoconic and normal corneae. Clao Journal, 28(2), 83-87

Purpose. Complications related to contact lens-induced anoxia in the keratoconic eye are well documented, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. This study compared topographical changes in corneal thickness and anterior corneal radius...

Tear spreading rates: Post-blink (2002)
Journal Article
Owens, H., & Phillips, J. R. (2002). Tear spreading rates: Post-blink. Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 506, 1201-1204. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-0717-8_170

The tear film plays a crucial role in the areas of contact lens wear and dry eye. However, despite its accessibility, there is no “gold-standard” test for assessing its functional quality. Current clinical tests are often poorly correlated with each... Read More about Tear spreading rates: Post-blink.
