Raymond I. Myers has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9937078
    Abstract: Systems and methods of laser treatment of the intact crystalline lens to increase ionic transport of antioxidants in specific areas where flexural changes and transparency reduction come from lens aging. Microchannels created in patterns and grids placed strategically in the inner lens carry antioxidants from the source—the anterior and the epithelium—into areas scarce or void of transport mechanisms (and thus scarce of antioxidants). A variety of patterns are utilized to facilitate ions traveling along new pathways.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120016350
    Abstract: Methods for the creation of microspheres treat the clear, intact crystalline lens of the eye with energy pulses, such as from lasers, for the purpose of correcting presbyopia, other refractive errors, and for the retardation and prevention of cataracts. Microsphere formation in non-contiguous patterns or in contiguous volumes works to change the flexure, mass, or shape of the crystalline lens in order to maintain or reestablish the focus of light passing through the ocular lens onto the macular area, and to maintain or reestablish fluid transport within the ocular lens.

  • Publication number: 20020049450
    Abstract: The invention consists of methods for treating the clear, intact crystalline lens of the eye with high energy light such as lasers, for the purpose of correcting presbyopia, other refractive errors, and the prevention of cataracts. The aim is to change the mass, shape, and/or flexure of the crystalline lens in order to maintain or reestablish the focus of all light onto the macular area.
