experiment example

[0056] Experimental example: Young live chickens were used as experimental objects to test the efficacy of the method and device in treating myopia and myopia progression. For a number of known reasons, other studies have used chicks to test and investigate optical devices and methods in the past, and the significance of their results in predicting human outcomes is accepted.

[0057] Evidence suggests that newly hatched chicks wearing negative power lenses exhibit a myopic transition approximately equal to the power of the lenses. There was a study to determine whether the lens-induced myopia in chicks could be suppressed with the lens of the invention designed to increase the curvature profile of the depth of focus, combined with the lens of the invention with negative central diopters.

[0058] Method: Fifteen juvenile chicks were used in the test, each wearing a single-sided lens made of PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate, plexiglass) attached with Velcro? Where the chick's ey...

Abstract

A method is provided for addressing myopia progression or inclination to myopia in which the influence of accommodative lag stress on myopia is reduced or eliminated to counter eye axial length growth. User depth of focus is increased to relieve stress from overall accommodative effort and stress from accommodation and accommodative lag to retard myopia progression and enable continuous and long term treatment by the user.

Description

Background technique [0001] Myopia, or short sightedness, is the condition in which the far point of vision does not reach infinity from the eye. Therefore, myopia can only clearly see objects at a limited distance from the eye, and the deeper the degree of myopia, the more shortened the distance toward the front. Myopia progression is the result of elongation of the eye's sclera (axial myopia), causing the retina, which lies behind the inner wall of the eyeball, to be pushed back away from the focus of the eye's long-distance imaging. To correct this condition, a lens that diverges light, a "concave" lens, must be used to move the beam of light focused in front of the retina back to the plane of the retina. The concave lens can be spectacle lenses, contact lenses or other ophthalmic devices that diverge light, which enables myopic eyes to regain the clarity of objects at infinity. [0002] Emmetropization refers to the process that the eyes continue to develop and grow from...
