  • Publication number: 20130261216
    Abstract: Silicone hydrogel contact lenses having ophthalmically acceptable levels of energy loss are described. The lenses are derived from a polymerizable composition including a first siloxane monomer represented by formula (1): wherein m of formula (1) represents one integer from 3 to 10, n of formula (1) represents one integer from 1 to 10, R1 of formula (1) is an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and each R2 of formula (1) is independently either a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; the lenses also include units derived from a second siloxane monomer which is a dual-end methacrylate end-capped polydimethylsiloxane having a number average molecular weight of at least 7,000 daltons. The average energy loss of the silicone hydrogel contact lenses is from about 30% to about 45% when the lenses are fully hydrated. Batches of silicone hydrogel contact lenses and methods of making silicone hydrogel contact lenses are also described.

  • Publication number: 20130044109
    Abstract: A control method and apparatus for stereoscopic display is provided. The method includes: obtaining the position change information of glasses of a user (s101); and then calibrating the image of display according to the position change information of glasses of the user (s102). The control apparatus includes: an obtaining module (101) which obtains the position change information of glasses of a user; and a calibrating module (102) which calibrates the image of display according to the position change information of glasses of the user. Compared with the prior art, the present invention can effectively solves the problem that stereoscopic effect is not real, due to the stereo virtual image position changed along with the moving head position of the user.
