PROCESSOR CONTROLLED INTRAOCULAR LENS SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates generally to an intraocular lens system controlled with a processor, including a liquid meniscus lens and supporting electronics. Embodiments may include intraocular lens systems of various shapes and sizes, liquid meniscus lens components of various shapes and sizes, variations in supporting electronics with corresponding variations in lens function.

主权项

1. An intraocular lens system comprising:
a front curve lens comprising a front curve lens exterior surface and a front curve lens interior surface; a back curve lens comprising a back curve lens interior surface and a back curve lens exterior surface said back curve lens positioned proximate to said front curve lens such that said front curve lens interior surface and said back curve lens interior surface form a cavity therebetween and forming a lens assembly, said front curve lens and back curve lens of suitable size and shape to replace an intraocular lens in a human eye; a volume of oil and a volume of saline solution contained within the cavity with a meniscus formed between said oil and said saline solution, wherein said meniscus comprises an optical characteristic; a conductive coating on at least a portion of one or both of said front curve lens interior surface and said back curve lens interior surface, said portion comprising a perimeter area of said front curve lens interior surface and said back curve lens interior surface; a power source for supplying an electrical charge to the conductive coating, wherein the application of the electrical charge is sufficient to cause a change of an optical characteristic of said meniscus.
