Abstract: Systems and methods for manipulation of private information in untrusted environments are disclosed. In one embodiment, in a trusted computing environment comprising at least one computer processor, for a plurality of data records, a method for manipulation of private information in untrusted environments may include: (1) separating each data record into a confidential data attribute and a non-confidential data attribute; (3) calculating an encrypted value for the confidential data attribute using an encryption key; (4) calculating an authentication value for the confidential data attribute using a hash value key; (5) associating the encrypted value and the authentication value in a protected data set; and (6) associating the non-confidential data record with the associated encrypted value and the authentication value; and (7) exporting the protected data set to an untrusted computing environment.

Abstract: The present invention includes methods and apparatus for forming a biomedical device, such as an ophthalmic lens, in a area defined by a first mold part and a second mold part wherein during the formation of the biomedical device a HEMA is formed and the HEMA ring and a greater adhesive force is generated on the HEMA ring by the second mold part than the first mold part.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods of printing contact lens molds in an inert atmosphere for use in manufacturing tinted contact lenses. Disclosed herein are inert atmosphere chambers and isolation shutters that are capable of quickly opening and closing to permit printing of contact lens molds in such a fashion that prevents migration and entrainment of air into the inert atmosphere chamber. Contact lens mold printing systems are also disclosed that are useful for printing contact lens molds in an inert atmosphere.

Abstract: In a processing facility comprising a plurality processing stations each for automatically conveying products in various stages of production for controlled processing, an intelligent product transfer and conveyance system that enables uninterrupted processing of only products determined as having passed a first inspection process at an upstream processing station. The intelligent product transfer and conveyance system for a processing facility ensures a continuous flow of a plurality of good products at sufficiently high speeds from an inspection process to subsequent stations for subsequent individualized packaging. The processing facility may comprise a contact lens manufacturing line for manufacturing spherical or toric type ophthalmic contact lens products.
