Prosthetic capsular devices, systems, and methods

Prosthetic capsular devices (e.g., bag, bowl, housing, structure, cage, frame) include technology devices such as a computer, virtual reality device, display device, WiFi/internet access device, image receiving device, biometric sensor device, game device, image viewers or senders, GPSs, e-mail devices, combinations thereof, and/or the like. The technology devices can be used in combination with an intraocular lens. The output from the technology device(s) can be fed to the retina of the user to provide a visual image, can be otherwise connected to the user, and/or can be used to control the properties of the intraocular lens or of the prosthetic capsular device. Wearable technology that provides biometric data, such as blood glucose levels, body temperature, electrolyte balance, heart rate, EKG, EEG, intraocular pressure, sensing ciliary muscle contraction for accommodation stimulus, dynamic pupil change and retinal prostheses, combinations thereof, and the like can assist in technology-assisted health care functions.

Methods of molding intraocular lenses

Intraocular implants and methods of making intraocular implants are disclosed. The intraocular implant can include a mask adapted to increase depth of focus. The method of manufacturing the implant can include filling an annular mask-forming trough with an opaque mask material and adding an optically transmissive optic material over the opaque mask material.

Reversibly deformable corneal implants for replacing excised corneal tissue, the implants including an optical portion and an anchoring portion having different mechanical properties from each other.

Corneal implant
11510775 · 2022-11-29 ·

Corneal implant (1) designed for correcting irregularities of the corneal curvature of a subject, the implant (1) having a generally dome-shaped structural body (2) configured to impose a regular curvature to the corneal portions designed to be in contact with the implant, wherein the structural body comprises an outer peripheral ring (10) and an inner reticular structure (20), wherein the inner reticular structure (20) comprises at least one first and one second series of beams (21, 22) intersecting each other, the beams (21) of the first series having a respective first end (31) connected to the outer peripheral ring (10), wherein the total area of void portions (24) within the meshes of the reticular structure (20) is between 50 and 99.9% of the surface area of the reticular structure (20).

OPHTHALMIC PROSTHETIC TO TREAT NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE DYSPHOTOPSIA
20230054347 · 2023-02-23 ·

An ophthalmic prosthetic and method for correcting negative and positive dysphotopsia. The ophthalmic prosthetic comprises a peripheral light blocking implant member adapted to locate in a gap between an iris and an intraocular implant lens. The gap is between the anterior surface of the lens and the posterior portion of the iris. An opacity of the peripheral light blocking implant member is selectively positioned to block passage of light.

OPHTHALMIC PINHOLE PROSTHETIC WITH SURFACE MODIFICATIONS AND METHOD OF FABRICATION
20230058505 · 2023-02-23 ·

An ophthalmic pinhole prosthetic and a method of fabricating the same. The ophthalmic pinhole prosthetic comprises an annular portion, an inner perimeter, and an interior light transmitting portion. The annular portion may be optically opaque or at least partially optically opaque. The inner perimeter may include surface modifications configured to reduce or substantially eliminate diffraction of light compared to an ophthalmic pinhole prosthetic without the surface modifications. The interior light transmitting portion may be located within the annular portion and function to allow passage of light to interact with a retina.

CORNEAL IMPLANT
