  • Patent number: 12050368
    Abstract: Spectacles that control myopia progression have a central zone that achieves foveal vision correction and distributed micro-reticle(s) and corresponding micro-lens(es) around the paracentral and/or peripheral zone of the spectacle. Each micro-lens is disposed between its corresponding micro-reticle and the pupil of a wearer's eye. The micro-reticle(s) and micro-len(s) are integrated with the structure of the spectacle to partially block some of the paracentral and/or peripheral objects from surrounding optical environment. The rest of the paracentral and/or peripheral retinal areas are still available for a wearer's eye to sense the presence and movement of surrounding objects.

  • Publication number: 20240151989
    Abstract: Eyewear for control of myopia progression communicates with a compliance monitoring system in accordance with a myopia progression retarding protocol. The compliance monitoring system includes a base station or a smart device. The base station or smart device includes a base wireless transceiver for receiving a beneficiary's usage data from the eyewear or a storage case configured to store the eyewear. The monitoring system processes the usage data from the eyewear or the storage case to compute a compliance score that is provided to a stakeholder of the myopia progression retarding protocol.

  • Patent number: 11974374
    Abstract: Myopia is a clinically significant and growing problem around the world. A major cause is the increasing time spent indoors by children, for example, playing video games, studying, and watching television. Exposure to sufficient overall light levels is known to be protective, and prevents the onset and also delays the progression of myopia. Embodiments include a computerized myopia progression retarding (“MPR”) system that includes a light source configured to provide illumination and an illumination sensor configured to sense ambient light. The MPR system also includes a processor configured to dynamically adjust the illumination in terms of either wavelength bands or luminance provided by the light source to solicit a target wavelength band or luminance for retarding myopia progression of a user.

  • Patent number: 11000186
    Abstract: Myopia is a clinically significant and growing problem around the world. A major cause is the increasing time spent indoors by children, for example, playing video games, studying, and watching television. Exposure to outdoor light is known to be protective, and prevents the onset and also delays the progression of myopia. Embodiments of the present invention provide simulated continuous outdoor light in either a closed or open feedback loop sufficient to retard myopia progression.
