  • Patent number: 10001662
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for aiding the vision and motor function of an individual with autism and other complex developmental delays due to the inability to sustain convergence in addition to ocular motor deficiencies. The method allows improved direct midline gaze increasing selective attention with less averted gaze. The method is practiced by the steps of mounting one or more prisms with bases most often nasally of one or both lenses of a pair of glasses. An individual wearing these glasses even while sleeping will awaken to a more normalized and less confusing visual spatial world.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20150165230
    Abstract: A handheld device is disclosed for assisting in stimulating vision improvement in individuals with visual field loss caused by brain trauma or cortical visual impairment. The device comprises a number of lights arranged in a pattern, which blink sequentially to provide the visual effect of a single light moving across the pattern. The device may be set to create the visual motion effect, and then placed at the edge of the field of vision loss so that the individual's brain will sense movement within the visual field and track that movement into the blind spot. The device includes controls to adjust the brightness and frequency of the blinking lights.

  • Publication number: 20150128348
    Abstract: An ergonomic headrest is disclosed that holds a user's head substantially in place to reduce turning during sleep. The headrest comprises two large, substantially conical mounds that are positioned beside each other to form a channel between the mounds. The user's neck rests between the mounds, and the top portion of the mounds provide support for the user's head.

  • Patent number: 8696116
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for aiding the vision and motor function of an individual with a visual field loss and the sensory imperceptions of visual neglect. The method is practiced by the steps of mounting one or more prisms with the bases most often in the same direction of the visual field loss within one or both lenses of a pair of glasses and an individual wearing the glasses even while in coma or sleeping.
