  • Patent number: 10251542
    Abstract: This device consists of a frame and light filters so as to enable a highly portable device to measure Dark Adaption. Dark Adaption is a process which tests sight in low light conditions and is an indicator of wet AMD disease, the leading cause of blindness in older people. This testing process was first established by the Goldmann-Weekers machine in the 1950s. The portability is achieved by use of filters, a common means to light reduction, and elimination of a machine outer cover. The simplicity and portability of this invention allows many types of very substantial cost efficiencies in eye examinations and also greater flexibility. With this device, testing for incipient wet AMD may be achieved in routine eye examinations where it is not now common. Home testing for wet AMD is also made possible and practical with this device.
