208 results about "Intraocular lens" patented technology

Intraocular lens (IOL) is a lens implanted in the eye as part of a treatment for cataracts or myopia. The most common type of IOL is the pseudophakic IOL. These are implanted during cataract surgery, after the cloudy eye's natural lens (colloquially called a cataract) has been removed. The pseudophakic IOL provides the same light focusing function as the natural crystalline lens. The second type of IOL, more commonly known as a phakic intraocular lens (PIOL), is a lens which is placed over the existing natural lens and is used in refractive surgery to change the eye's optical power as a treatment for myopia (nearsightedness).

Systems and methods for compensating for intraocular lens tilt

Systems and methods for compensating for tilt of an intraocular lens (IOL) and systems and methods for adjusting an IOL are disclosed herein. For example, one of the methods may include capturing one or more optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of a subject's eye while implanting the IOL within the subject's eye. The method may further include generating a fixation target such that the fixation target is visible to an eye of the subject; and moving the fixation target until the lateral plane of the IOL is perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the optical axis of the ophthalmic system. The method may also include directing a laser beam generated by a laser of the ophthalmic system at the IOL.

Methods and systems for changing a refractive property of an implantable intraocular lens

A method of altering a refractive property of a crosslinked acrylic polymer material by irradiating the material with a high energy pulsed laser beam to change its refractive index. The method is used to alter the refractive property, and hence the optical power, of an implantable intraocular lens after implantation in the patient's eye. In some examples, the wavelength of the laser beam is in the far red and near IR range and the light is absorbed by the crosslinked acrylic polymer via two-photon absorption at high laser pulse energy. The method also includes designing laser beam scan patterns that compensate for effects of multiphone absorption such as a shift in the depth of the laser pulse absorption location, and compensate for effects caused by high laser pulse energy such as thermal lensing. The method can be used to form a Fresnel lens in the optical zone.

An intraocular lens selection and rotational implantation prediction method and electronic device

This application discloses a method and electronic device for predicting intraocular lens (IOL) selection and rotation implantation, relating to the field of computer technology. This application acquires the user's ocular biological measurement parameters and constructs an intraocular geometric constraint region. The IOL is abstracted as a rectangular geometries, generating a set of candidate size-axis positions. Each candidate option satisfies the geometric constraints of the patient's intraocular anatomy in terms of implantation position and rotation angle. Based on this, by combining the geometric fit indices of the candidate options with individualized ocular biological parameters, the postoperative arch height, the probability of abnormal arch height, and postoperative refractive results are predicted. After post-processing and calibration, outputs with confidence intervals or risk probabilities are provided. This eliminates reliance on experience or rough estimates for surgical planning, effectively reducing the risk of arch height deviation or postoperative refractive errors, providing the optimal IOL option, and achieving individualized, quantifiable, and predictable implantation planning.
