  • Patent number: 11311373
    Abstract: Ophthalmic systems and methods of changing an optical power of an ophthalmic system are described. In an example, the ophthalmic system includes an accommodating intraocular device shaped to be implantable in an eye and an extraocular device separate from the accommodating intraocular device shaped to be removably mountable to a portion of the eye outside a bulb of the eye, such as an underlid portion of the eye. In an example, the method includes wirelessly transmitting power from a power source of an extraocular device removably mounted outside a bulb of an eye to an accommodating intraocular device implanted in the eye.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10905546
    Abstract: A method for controlled unfolding of an intraocular lens (IOL) includes inserting a folded IOL into an eye and heating a shape memory alloy (SMA) ring included with the IOL to a temperature that is at least a transition temperature of the SMA ring. The transition temperature is above a body temperature. Heating the SMA ring causes the SMA ring to unfold the IOL.

  • Publication number: 20070003653
    Abstract: An apparatus for making a bioprosthetic stent graft is disclosed, the stent having a stent frame and a biomaterial sheath suturelessly bonded to the stent frame. An automated energy irradiator guidance system is disclosed which reduces the potential for human error and improves the consistency and repeatability of tissue welding techniques. The system includes a mapper, a patternizer, an energy director and can additionally include an energy regulator. An interface is included, allowing pattern creation, selection and editing by a user. The system further provides control of energy irradiator parameters for use in tissue welding.
