45 results about "Foveola" patented technology

The foveola is located within a region called the macula, a yellowish, cone photo receptor filled portion of the human retina. The foveola is approximately 0.35 mm in diameter and lies in the center of the fovea and contains only cone cells, and a cone-shaped zone of Müller cells. In this region the cone receptors are found to be longer, slimmer and more densely packed than anywhere else in the retina, thus allowing that region to have the potential to have the highest visual acuity in the eye.

System and method for high-resolution with a small-format focal-plane array using spatial modulation

This invention provides a system and method for balanced-demodulation procedures that remove image clutter even in the presence of scene motion. A system that employs balanced demodulation moves a chopping reticle located in the intermediate focal plane where front end optics focus a high-resolution image. The chopping reticle has a checkerboard pattern of clear and opaque cells and moves in an uneven rate (e.g. Δx≠Δy) along the x-axis and y-axis. The resulting image is projected on a focal plane array from which differences are calculated to generate the desired balanced demodulation value. This invention further provides a foveal enhancement of the baseline spatial-modulation staring sensor. In this enhancement the WFOV low-resolution conventional image is displayed to the operator, but with a selectable subarea of that image replaced by a conventionally generated high-resolution image at the same scale. The operator would be able to naturally select the region for foveal enhancement by simply pointing directly at the detail of special interest which would then be displayed to the user at high-resolution. The remainder of the scene would be displayed at low-resolution, typically with marks at the locations of point sources detected by the spatial modulation.

Ocular-performance-based head impact measurement applied to rotationally-centered impact mitigation systems and methods

A system or method for measuring human ocular performance can be implemented using an eye sensor, a head orientation sensor, and an electronic circuit. The device is configured for measuring vestibulo-ocular reflex, pupillometry, saccades, visual pursuit tracking, vergence, eyelid closure, dynamic visual acuity, retinal image stability, foveal fixation stability, focused position of the eyes or visual fixation of the eyes at any given moment and nystagmus. The eye sensor comprises a video camera that senses vertical movement and horizontal movement of at least one eye. The head orientation sensor senses pitch and yaw in the range of frequencies between 0.01 Hertz and 15 Hertz. The system is implemented as part of an impact reduction helmet that comprises an inner frame having interior pads configured to rest against a person's head and one or more shock absorption elements attached between the inner frame and the spherical shell that couple the spherical shell to the inner frame. The spherical shell has a circular geometry, that when viewed horizontally at its horizontal midplane, includes a center point that is the rotational center of the spherical shell. The one or more shock absorption elements are sized to provide greater spacing between the inner frame and the spherical shell at the sides and rear of the spherical shell than at the front of the spherical shell. The one or more shock absorption elements are sized to configure the alignment of the rotational center of the spherical shell with the proximate rotational center of the wearer's head.

Bionic eye using system capable of preventing eyes from feeling tired after long time use and preventing and curing eye diseases such as shortsightedness

The invention discloses a bionic eye using system capable of preventing eyes from feeling tired after long time use and preventing and curing eye diseases such as shortsightedness. The reason that theancients and all land animals are hardly shortsighted is decoded in the aspect of bionics, and the essence of the reason is fused with the prior art to form the bionic eye using system capable of preventing eyes from feeling tired after long time use and preventing eye diseases such as shortsightedness. A reading rack comprises a movement guiding device, or a movement guiding device and a peripheral visual field stimulating device; the movement guiding device is used for driving a reading matter to move regularly, and aims to drive switching operation among different visual cells in the center of a retina, drive the ciliaris, crystalline lens, extraocular muscle and sclera to perform switching operation between a tensioned state and a relaxed state continuously, and utilizes the subconsciousness of all animals for the sensibility of dynamic conditions to adjust the visual desires; the peripheral visual field stimulating device is used for changing the peripheral visual field blood circulation of the eye ground, bidirectionally adjusting the lengths of optical axes, promoting the lengths of optical axes for shortsightedness and farsightedness to recover towards the emmetropia direction and promoting the periphery of the eye ground with astigmatism to recover towards the emmetropia direction by the elongated eye axes.

Lens, glasses and device for preventing and controlling myopia and lens preparation method

The invention discloses a lens, glasses and device for preventing and controlling myopia and a lens preparation method. The lens is characterized in that the absolute value of the diopter of a lens body is smaller than the absolute value of the actual optometry diopter of the eyeballs of a myopia person, and a lightproof film is arranged on the surface of the central area of the lens body and provided with a plurality of micropores. Because the absolute value of the diopter of the lens body is smaller than the absolute value of the actual optometry diopter of the eyeballs of the myopic person,the lens body cannot completely correct the ametropia of the myopic person, and the permissible diffusion circle is located in front of the retina; after the central area is subjected to the action of the micropores, the allowable dispersion circle can move backwards, so that the allowable dispersion circle just falls into the central concave part of the macula lutea of the retina, clear centralvision is provided for the myopic person, and the allowable dispersion circle is still kept at a relatively front position due to the fact that the peripheral area of the lens body is not limited by the micropores. Therefore, myopia defocusing is formed on the peripheral retinas, and finally the effect of preventing and controlling juvenile myopia is achieved.

Method for treating stage 1 macular hole without vitectomy and the instrument for realisation thereof

The invention relates to ophthalmology, in particular to the surgical treatment technique of macular holes at the early stages without vitrectomy. The method for treating stage 1 macular hole without vitrectomy comprises peeling the posterior hyaloid membrane away from the foveola, wherein an ophthalmological instrument is inserted through the vitreous body until it comes into contact with the posterior hyaloid membrane in the macular area, the posterior hyaloid membrane then being gripped by said instrument and peeled away from the foveola, in accordance with the invention, and after the contact between the instrument and the posterior hyaloid membrane an opening is made therein, whereby the edge of the opening is then used to lift the posterior hyaloid membrane and peel it away from the foveola until the layers are separated; wherein the instrument used is an ophthalmological membrane spatula comprising a handle 1 and a pointed working part 2 with a tip 3 shaped as a hook. The improved grip of the posterior hyaloid membrane, better visual control and maintaining the hold of said membrane continuously through the manipulations until the peeling from the foveola is complete, made it possible to reduce the trauma associated with surgical management of stage 1 macular hole without vitrectomy and to decrease the number of related complications.
