SAMIR I. SAYEGH 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).

  • Publication number: 20220362011
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for selecting toric intraocular lenses (IOL) and relaxing incision for correcting refractive error. The one or more toric IOL and relaxing incision combinations can be used for off-axis correction of refractive errors such as astigmatism. The disclosure provides a method for selecting toric IOL and relaxing incision combinations that have combined astigmatism correcting powers and off-axis positions or orientations of the astigmatism correcting axes of the toric IOL and relaxing incision that are effective to yield lower residual astigmatism than on axis correction methods. The toric IOL and relaxing incision combinations also allow the user to avoid incisions that will radially overlap with a cataract incision thereby provided improved outcomes.

  • Publication number: 20150216477
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for detecting lymphedema and methods for managing lymphedema in an individual. The methods of the invention involves utilizing a light sensing device having a video camera, depth sensor and software effective to perform a 3-dimensional scan and generate a three-dimensional digital model of at least a portion of the body from data obtained by the camera and depth sensor, thereby obtaining a three-dimensional digital model of at least a portion of the body from which the size of a select region of the body can be assessed to detect, monitor and/or manage lymphedema. The invention also provides methods to detect and manage lymphedema that involve assessing any combination of size, amount of extracellular fluids, and thickness of the skin at a select region of the body of an individual.
