  • Device and method that allows an objective measurement to be taken of the size and morphological pattern of the degradation of the image in scotopic vision
    Patent number: 6585377
    Abstract: Device and method that allows an objective measure to be taken of the size and morphological pattern of the degradation of the image in scotopic vision. It consists of a black front screen (1) which has a central luminous source (2) surrounded by a grid of circular light spots (3) which at the beginning of the test light up sequentially or at random, according to the method selected, from the nearest to the central source of glare in a centrifuge fashion to the outermost, and a trigger which the patient will press every time he can discriminate the presence of each of the spots in 12 meridians. The non-discriminated or hidden spots will border an area which is interpreted as being occupied by the light aberration and is used as a basis for calculating the glare index.

  • Suction ring for microkeratomes
    Publication number: 20020138089
    Abstract: This suction ring is composed of a ring-shaped body (1) with an incarcerated, bevelled front opening (2), with an anterolateral cannula (4) for connection to a vacuum pump and a dovetail guide (7) on which the microkeratome cutting blade moves. The lateral wall of the body (1) has a tapered truncated conical configuration, diverging backwards for adaptation to the eyeball, in order to increase the suction capacity to the eye. The front area has a wider stepped perimeter (6), which together with a bulge (8) on the outer edge and corresponding to the tips of the guide (7), increases the effective length of the latter, allowing better fixation of the cutting blade.
