Using a suitable measuring method that takes into account the cyclorotation of the eye, it was possible to precisely determine IOL rotation using picture pairs taken in chronological sequence. The IOL design examined in the study is recommended as a toric IOL because of its good rotational stability.

The sensitivity of the Brückner reflex for anisometropia improves by extension of the examination distance, especially in the hands of less experienced observers. To detect ametropia more sensitively, a test distance of 4 m is recommended.

“Poly(1,4-diselenobenzene)”, obtained by reaction of 1,4-dibromobenzene with disodiumdiselenide is shown to contain many different polymer sequences. Bromination of the polymer yields a variety of low molecular weight species thus confirming the non-uniformity of the polymer and giving some hints about its composition. The aryl-selenium-bromine compounds 1,4-benzene-diselenenyldibromide, 4,4′-di(bromoselenenyl)-diphenylseleniumdibromide, and bromo-bis(4-bromophenyl)selenonium hexachloroantimonate were fully characterised inclu­ding X-ray structure determinations.
