Purpose : Tourmaline, a natural ore material, was applied to the entire eyeglasses to observe changes in intraocular pressure (IOP), one of the factors related to human ocular metabolism. Methods : After making eyeglass frames by mixing TR-90, which is the main material of eyeglass frames and 7wt% of tourmaline, The changes of intraocular pressure before and after wearing of tourmaline spectacle frames were divided into low, middle and high groups according to the intraocular pressure in 90 normal subjects (46 men and 44 women) in their 20s. Results : Total intraocular pressure was a significantly decreased to -4.14% (p<0.000) in the right eye after wearing tourmaline frames, and significantly decreased to -6.39 % (p<0.000) and -4.64 % (p<0.017) in the High and Middle groups, respectively. Total intraocular pressure was a significantly decreased to -2.74 % (p<0.004) in the left eye, and -4.58 % (p<0.000) in the High group only showed statically significant value. Conclusion : In this study, the spectacle frame containing 7wt% tourmaline was used and it was confirmed that the intraocular pressure was significantly decreased after wearing the spectacle frame, and it became close to the average value of the normal intraocular pressure range. The results of this study showed that tourmaline, which has the effect of promoting the metabolism and blood circulation of the body, has an effect on the normalization of the intraocular pressure by attaching it to the spectacle frame.

This study was investigated to find the proper UV-A blocking percentage that could protect the denaturation of catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD), antioxidative enzymes in eye, induced by UV-A. Catalase or SOD were irradiated at 365 nm for 1, 3, 6, 24, 96 hr and the extent of denaturation was evalutated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Furthermore, it was investigated whether blocking of UV-A by 20, 50, 80 and 99% eyeglass lens could protect the denaturation of catalase and SOD or not. Catalase became to denature when catalase were irradiated by UV-A for more than 3 hours. However, the denaturation of SOD was induced by more than 6 hours irradiation. The denaturation of catalase induced by irradiation for 3 hr could be perfectly protected by 99% UV-A blocking lens. But, when the irradiation time became longer than 3 hr or the blocking percentage of lens were lower than 99%, the denaturation of catalase was not perfectly protected but partially protected. Although 50% UV-A blocking lens had partial protecting effects, lenses having 80 or 99% UV-A blocking effect could perfectly prevent the denaturation of SOD induced by 96 hr irradiation.

The aim of this study was to find the proper UV-A blocking percentage that could protect the denaturation of ribonuclease A (RNase A), one of protein enzymes in eye, induced by UV-A. RNase A was irradiated at 365 nm for 1, 3, 6, 24, 48, 72, 96 hr and the extent of denaturation was monitored by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Furthermore, it was investigated whether blocking of UV-A by 20, 50, 80 and 99% eyeglass lens could protect the denaturation of RNase A or not. The denaturation of RNase A was induced by only 1 hr UV-A irradiation and the extent of denaturation became severe depending on UV-A irradiation time. The mild denaturation of RNase A induced by irradiation for 1 hr could be sufficiently protected by 20% UV-A blocking lens. When RNase A was irradiated for 3 hr, more that 50% blocking of UV-A needed to prevent the denaturation. Even though 99% UV-A blocking lens was used, the denaturation of RNase A induced by 6 hr irradiation could not be prevented perfectly. However, 99% UV-A blocking lens could dramatically decrease the severe denaturation of RNase A induced by irradiation for 96 hr.

The objective of this study is to analyze the export performance of Korean eyewear products in China market, and derive some implications from the results of the analysis. For the analysis, the statistical data from 2003 to 2013 produced by Korea International Trade Association were used, and Market Share Index, Trade Specialization Index, and Revealed Comparative Advantage Index as an analyzing method were selected. According to the analysis, Korea's eyewear goods market share in China's glasses market was less than 5% on average during the analyzing period amid recording chronic deficits in Korea's eyewear commodities trade to China and by product, contact lenses were competitive, while eyeglass frames, eyeglasses, eyeglass lenses and sunglasses were not competitive. The suggestions for revitalizing Korea's eyewear products exports to the China market are as follows: First, Korea's glasses industry must enhance the ability to develop creative and distinctive product design to meet the needs of Chinese consumers. Second, to meet Chinese consumers preferences, Korea's glasses industry must actively produce new materials and functional products. Third, Korea's glasses industry must improve brand awareness through the continuous launch of new products for the Chinese market. Fourth, Korea's glasses industry must actively promote strategic alliances with domestic and foreign enterprises, and the Hallyu marketing. Fifth, Korea's glasses industry must reasonably improve the unusual products distribution system. Finally, The government must prepare a systematic support system for eyeglasses industry.

The human eye and skin is exposed daily to solar energy. Expecially, the ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure has been damaged as an important causative factor in corneal disease. These damage of cornea was effected the retina. Therefore the eye function was effected very significant damage. As a results the protect of UVR in the eye is very important in ocular health. Therefore in living the intensive ultraviolet radiation environment by solar energy, human eye have protected the cornea and eyeball by the UV-blocking sunglass, eyeglass, goggles, and contact lens. Finally the specific UV-blocker lens devices available to the primary care for the subjects by optician. Of course, in the future these specific lenses have to development and study by fellowship.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the "Physical Therapist and Occupational Therapist Act" of Japan and the "Medical Technician's. Etc. Act" of Korea in order to establish the grounds for improvement of effective law-making. Methods: We obtained the "Medical Technician's. Etc. Act" from the Korean Ministry of Government Legislation and the "Physical Therapist and Occupational Therapist Act" from the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. It was translated from an association by related Japanese and experts. Results: The laws consisted of acts, enforcement ordinances, and enforcement regulations in both Korea and Japan. In the Korean case, eight occupations were defined in one law including six types of medical technicians, as well as medical recorders and opticians. The "Physical Therapist and Occupational Therapist Act" in Japan is composed of 6 chapters and 22 articles, while the Korean Act consists of 33 articles without chapters. Among them, 11 articles covered the establishment and management of dental laboratories and eyeglass shops, and only 22 articles were related to physical therapists and occupational therapists. Conclusion: Independent laws should be established for each type of medical technician. They must be comparable to Japanese laws on physical therapists and occupational therapists as well as clinical pathologists, dental hygienists, dental technicians, radiologic technologists, medical recorders, and opticians.

Purpose - In recent years, new retail innovations have emerged in the Japanese eyeglasses industry and grown as a retail format. The purpose of this study is to establish the process model of retail format creation by examining how a retailer creates a retail format and under what kind of environmental conditions. Research design, data, and methodology - This study pointed out the weakness of the concept of the retail format in existing research on the retail format in existing research on the retail format variation theory and suggested the concept of "Formula" to analyze an individual retailer. This study categorized the subjects categorize the subjects of retail format creation into four categories, and analyzed JINS which is the retail format leader in the Japanese eyeglass industry. This study used secondary data because it is valid. Results - This research found "product handling skill," "changes to consumer purchasing patterns," and "competitive interaction" as environmental factors influencing retail format creation. This study highlighted how JINS adapted those environmental factors to create their original formula and suggested the process model of retail format creation through the JINS case study. Conclusions - This study discussed two theoretical implications and three managerial impressions which were derived from the JINS case study. This study also discussed limitations and further research issues.
