摘要:
This invention discloses methods and apparatus for forming Ophthalmic Lenses with Stabilizing Features, and more specifically, Ophthalmic Lenses that include an encapsulated Insert Device.
摘要:
The present invention describes single-piece or multi-piece Rigid Inserts that may be included in an Ophthalmic Lenses or may comprise the Ophthalmic Lens, wherein the Rigid Insert may be formed through the processing of thin sheet material by thermoforming. Single piece annular Rigid Inserts may perform the function of providing a template for printed patterns to be included in Ophthalmic Lenses. Single piece full Rigid Inserts may perform the function of polarizing light or filtering light based on the properties of materials used to form the insert. Multi-piece Rigid Inserts may include activation and energization elements. The present invention also includes methods and apparatus for forming the Rigid Inserts.
摘要:
The present invention, as described above and as further defined by the claims below, provides methods for forming an Ophthalmic Lens that encapsulates a Rigid Insert, wherein the Rigid Insert may be tailored to correct specific astigmatic characteristics of an eye and apparatus for implementing such methods, as well as Ophthalmic Lenses formed with the Rigid Inserts.

摘要:
The present invention discloses methods for manufacturing and programming an energizable Ophthalmic Lens with a programmable Media Insert. In some embodiments, a Media Insert may be programmable to allow for further customization of the energized Ophthalmic Lens. The Media Insert may be programmed prior to or during the manufacturing process. Alternatively, the Media Insert may be programmed after the components have been encapsulated, wherein the programming may occur wirelessly. Accordingly, methods of wirelessly programming the Media Insert may be significant.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus to form biocompatible energization elements are described. In some embodiments, the methods and apparatus to form the biocompatible energization elements involve forming cavities into a fuel cell. The active elements of a cathode, anode, membrane and fuel storage are sealed with a laminate stack of biocompatible material. In some embodiments, a field of use for the methods and apparatus may include any biocompatible device or product that requires energization elements.

The present invention discloses an apparatus for programming an energizable Ophthalmic Lens with a programmable Media Insert. In some embodiments, a Media Insert may be programmable to allow for further customization of the energized Ophthalmic Lens. The programming may occur after the electrical components have been encapsulated in the programmable Media Insert. In some embodiments, the apparatus may wirelessly program the Media Insert after the Ophthalmic Lens has been fully assembled. Alternatively, the apparatus may indirectly program the Media Insert by wirelessly programming an overlay. The overlay may subsequently program the Media Insert when placed in proximity to the Media Insert, wherein the placing completes the assembly of the Ophthalmic Lens.
摘要:
The present invention provides an energized ophthalmic device with an active agent release system and an associated method. The active agent release system can be suitable to dispense an active agent including, for example, a vitamin, lubricant, a saline, a solvent, and/or medicament, at one or more predetermined times, through the use of an energization element contained in the ophthalmic device. The energization element may be a battery and/or an energy receptor antenna. The release of the active agent can be according to a signal received wirelessly, a predetermined time, and/or a sensed condition, which can cause an activation element to conduct a current to at least a portion of a metal cap under stress causing it to fold and thereby expose the active agent to a surrounding environment.
