Abstract: A system and method is provided for automatically conducting tasks in support of autism therapy sessions for a human subject. The method includes the steps of: conducting a subject assessment to generate assessment results relating to degrees of autism of the human subject; documenting the assessment results electronically; creating an autism therapy plan by inputting the assessment results into a mathematical model; implementing the autism therapy plan by conducting therapy programs; monitoring therapy program results, and creating a revised autism therapy plan which is generated using the therapy program results as an input.

Abstract: Ophthalmic devices suitable for implantation into the eye through small incisions or insertion into an existing orifice are disclosed. These devices are made from a composition comprising crystalline or semi-crystalline polymeric materials which have a glass transition temperature (Tg) of from about ?100° C. to about 37° C., and wherein Tg for the material is lower than Tm for the composition. Disclosed devices include intraocular lenses, corneal inlays, drug delivery devices and implants for reducing intraocular pressure in glaucoma patients.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and uses of tempol or other nitroxide superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetics for the treatment of extracellular-superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) deficiencies.

Abstract: Intraocular lenses containing a photochromic agent having its maximum absorption peak in the wavelength range of about 400-500 nm, are disclosed. Methods for making these intraocular lenses are also taught.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for implantation of intraocular lenses (IOLs) with various designs, particularly a full-size IOL, into the eye through small incisions are disclosed. A full-size intraocular lens mimics the natural human crystalline lens in size and volume. The SMART™ IOL, a full-size design, utilizes the thermodynamic properties of a crystalline polymeric material composition. The insertion apparatus and method of the present invention allow the full-size SMART™ IOL to be inserted through a small incision (about 4 mm or less) by deforming it with a crimping device into a solid rod and delivering the rod into the eye with a temperature-controlled injector equipped with a temperature control device. Once the solid rod is located in the desired position inside the eye, human body temperature softens the rod and allows it to reform back into the original lens geometry with defined optical properties.
