This document summarizes various types of corneal dystrophies:
1. It categorizes dystrophies into epithelial, Bowman's layer, stromal, Descemet's membrane and endothelial types.
2. Within stromal dystrophies it describes TGFβ1 corneal dystrophies including lattice corneal dystrophy and granular corneal dystrophy. It provides details on inheritance, onset, symptoms and signs for each type.
3. It also summarizes macular corneal dystrophy, Schnyder corneal dystrophy and congenital stromal corneal dystrophy within stromal dystrophies.

corneal dystrophy and degeneration are very important factor for visual control especially in elderly people. there are various various classification on corneal dystrophy., which are based on disease etiology and progression of disease. timely intervention is required to save the vision.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

progressive.
Sign & symptoms : lesions are diffused, bilateral, corneal
clouding with flake-like, whitish stromal opacities throughout
the stroma, causing moderate to severe visual loss.
5. Flack corneal dystrophy (FCD)
Known as francois-neetens specked corneal dystrophy
Inheritance : autosomal dominant
Onset & course : occurs congenitally & is non progressive.
Signs & symptoms : asymptomatic condition, dandruff like
opacities or some times ring shaped opacities .
17. 6.Posterior amorphous corneal dystrophy (PACD)
Known as amorphous stromal dystrophy
Inheritance : autosomal dominant
Onset & course : occurs in first decade of life, congenital, non or
slowly progressive.
Signs & symptoms : gray white sheet-like opacities, mild decrease
in visual acuity.
7. Central cloudy dystrophy of Francois (CCDF)
Inheritance : unknown
Onset & course : occurs in first decade, non-progressive.
Sign & symptoms : mostly asymptomatic, rounded stromal opacities
that interiorly & peripherally & are surrounded by clear tissue.
8.Pre-descemet corneal dystrophy
Inheritance : unknown
Onsets & course : occurs after 30 years of age ,non-progressive.
Signs & symptoms: usually asymptomatic ,gray opacities.
