Eyelid force measurements and electromagnetic blink stimulation system: Development of a novel management technique for unilateral lagophthalmos
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This thesis tested the feasibility of an electromagnetic blink stimulation system. An eyelid force measurement device was built with a speculum and strain gauge technology to measure the forces generated by the eyelids of patients with unilateral lagophthalmos due to facial nerve paralysis and normal subjects. The difference between the paralysed and non-paralysed eyelids of patients was 40.44g for blink force and 101.87g for forceful closure force. An electromagnetic blink stimulation system, consisting of a permanent magnet implanted in the upper lid of the paralysed eyelid and an electromagnet, was simulated using Maxwell SV. A maximal downward force of 0.51g was generated, smaller than the lightest gold weight implant. This system would ideally be integrated with a non-contact blink detection system already developed. Any force larger than that of the gold weight implant would allow for a higher closure velocity, increased blink amplitude and corneal coverage and less corneal irritation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
