A system for preventing motion sickness resulting from virtual reality or augmented reality is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the system includes a virtual reality or augmented reality headset configured to be worn by a user, the virtual reality or augmented reality headset configured to create an artificial environment and/or immersive environment for the user; at least one fluidic lens disposed between an eye of the user and a screen of the virtual reality or augmented reality headset; and a fluid control system operatively coupled to the at least one fluidic lens. In another embodiment, the system includes at least one tunable prism disposed between an eye of the user and a screen of the virtual reality or augmented reality headset, the at least one tunable prism configured to correct a convergence problem associated with the eye of the user.

A lens for use in an intraocular lens system for treating age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the lens including an anterior surface, a posterior surface, and a plurality of haptics configured to align the anterior light-converging intraocular lens with an optical axis of the eye. The plurality of haptics may have a symmetrical design and comprising ciliary-sulcus-engaging surfaces configure to position the lens within in a ciliary sulcus of an eye. At least one of the anterior surface and the posterior surface may be rendered as aspherical surfaces selected to induce spherical aberration while minimizing optical aberration and thereby provide for a continuum of retinal images to be focused at an area macula of a retina of the eye between two retinal eccentricities.

An eye lens having a front lens element and a rear lens element, which each have a positive optical power and an optical region, and an intermediate element, which is connected to the lens elements outside the optical regions so that the lens elements and the intermediate element form a cavity. The eye lens allows the width of an access incision necessary for implantation to be reduced. The eye lens includes the lens elements and the intermediate element that are shaped such that, in the implanted state, a distance between the front lens element and the rear lens element is fixed and the cavity has an opening which allows liquid to flow into the cavity. Embodiments of the invention include a method for producing such an eye lens and a method for implantation.

Particular embodiments disclosed herein provide an apparatus and corresponding methods for guiding ophthalmic surgery and enabling a surgeon to switch, after initiating surgery, between a primary treatment plan and one or more backup plans. Switching between a first plan and a second plan may be performed while omitting presentation of steps of the second plan compatible with implemented steps of the first plan. A treatment plan may include guides imposed on a live video of an eye of the patient that has been registered with respect to a pre-operative image. When switching between plans, initiating registration with respect to the pre-operative image is omitted. A treatment plan may define steps for placement of an IOL such as incision, rhexis, LRI, crystalline lens removal, placement of an IOL, alignment of a toric IOL, and post-operative data collection. Upon switching between first and second, previously implemented compatible steps are omitted from presentation of the second plan.

A tunable prism for vision correction of a patient and other applications is disclosed herein. The tunable prism includes a first transparent plate; a second transparent plate; and a transparent balloon, a transparent ball, a transparent gel, or a transparent bag filled with a transparent gel disposed between the first and second transparent plates. A tilt of at least one of the first and second transparent plates is configured to be modified so as to adjust a prism diopter of the tunable prism.

The accommodative intraocular lens combination includes mechanically and optically independent lens sections including a static, fixed power lens section to restore refraction of the eye and an, independent, dynamic, variable power lens section to restore accommodation of the eye. The preferred embodiment is a combination of a fixed power lens section, for example, a monofocal intraocular lens implanted inside the capsular bag in combination with a variable power lens section implanted at the sulcus plane and driven by the ciliary mass directly. The lens can include optics comprising free-form surfaces according to orders which exceed third order Zernike and can include additional corrective optics to modulate fixed and variable residual optical.

The present disclosure provides a three-lens IOL system including a first, anterior lens, a second, posterior lens rigidly connected to the first lens by at least one rigid member such that the second lens is a fixed distance from the first lens along an axis, a third, center, moveable lens positioned between the first lens and the second lens and adapted to move linearly along the axis anteriorly in a direction of the first lens or posteriorly in a direction of the second lens to change an optical power of the system, and an articulating actuator that contacts the moveable lens and a capsular bag of an eye when the IOL system is implanted in the capsular bag, the articulating actuator adapted to move the moveable lens linearly along the axis.

An accommodating intraocular lens implant includes an anterior floating lens unit, a posterior lens unit, an anterior rim complex disposed such that the anterior floating lens unit is movable toward and away from the anterior rim complex. A plurality of levers are in jointed connection with: the anterior floating lens unit at respective first longitudinal sites along the levers, the anterior rim complex at respective second longitudinal sites along the levers, and the posterior lens unit at respective third longitudinal sites along the levers. The respective second longitudinal sites are longitudinally between the respective first and the respective third longitudinal sites. The levers are arranged (a) such that the third longitudinal sites serve as respective fulcrums for the plurality of levers, and (b) to move the anterior floating lens unit toward and away from the anterior rim complex, in the anterior-posterior direction. Other embodiments are also described.

The present disclosure provides a three-lens IOL system including a first, anterior lens, a second, posterior lens rigidly connected to the first lens by at least one rigid member such that the second lens is a fixed distance from the first lens along an axis, a third, center, moveable lens positioned between the first lens and the second lens and adapted to move linearly along the axis anteriorly in a direction of the first lens or posteriorly in a direction of the second lens to change an optical power of the system, and an articulating actuator that contacts the moveable lens and a capsular bag of an eye when the IOL system is implanted in the capsular bag, the articulating actuator adapted to move the moveable lens linearly along the axis.

An intraocular device having anterior and posterior faces, haptics extending from the intraocular device, each of the haptics including a slender loop element with a proximal end attached to the intraocular device, the slender loop element having a length, width and thickness, the length following a curved path and the width being generally parallel to a central anterior-posterior axis of the intraocular device, and a distal hook portion extending from a distal end of the slender loop element, the distal hook portion including an anterior edge tilted towards the central anterior-posterior axis of the intraocular device.
