Nanobiotechnology in the Management of Glaucoma

 “Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. ”
                                                               ---- Helen Keller
      The above sentences can be read by many people and the story of Helen Keller is also known by most of the people. But can it really work to encourage people who really have the same experience, especially those people that lose sight or hearing after growing up? The absolutely positive or negative answer cannot be given, but the preventive method of losing sight or hearing can be offered by all kinds of researches.
     The research introduced here is about the preventive method of losing sight. It introduces the management of glaucoma. Glaucoma is one of the three most severe eye diseases that can cause the blindness when it’s not treated correctly and timely. And the management of glaucoma mainly relies on pharmacological and invasive surgical treatments by reducing the intraocular pressure (IOP). But for the increase of the glaucoma all over the world, the experts and clinicians also expect some new and effective ways can be provided to reduce the risk of glaucoma and the blindness. Then the nanobiotechnology of the management of glaucoma is put forward.
Nanobiotechnology is a combination of nanotechnology and biology, which aims to study the biological phenomena via nanotechnology and can be used in many different research fields. And according to the study, the use of nanobiotechnology is very effective and it offers potential for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents of the glaucoma management.

In a word, for each person, it’s better to pay attention to their own eye health and treat the eye diseases actively when suffering from them. And keep in mind, the sight can hardly be back once lose it.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
