Title: High-purity hard gold alloy and process for production thereof
Inventor: OGASA KAZUO
IPC: A44C27/00
Filed: 1996-03-04
Granted: 2000-03-23
Abstract: In the process of producing a high-purity gold alloy, (1) trace elements are added and (2) heat treatment is performed, so that the hardness is increased to a level approximately equivalent to that of 18-karat gold at relatively low working ratio, thereby eliminating the drawbacks associated with high-purity gold, that is, improving the workability, heat resistance, flaw resistance, durability, etc. A high-purity gold alloy according to the present invention can be hardened to a level approximately equivalent to that of 18-karat gold at relatively low working ratio, and the high-purity gold alloy thus hardened is not extremely softened by heat treatment performed as a post-treatment, such as brazing or welding. Even a cast article which is not subjected to plastic working has a hardness comparable to that of a hardened article which has been subjected to plastic working. <IMAGE>

Title: Detecting visual field defects
Inventor: SADUN ALFREDO A
IPC: A61B3/02
Filed: 1986-12-31
Granted: 1990-09-20
Abstract: A method and system are provided for detecting and monitoring the treatment of eye disease by determining the presence of visual field defects. The method utilizes eyeglasses having a pair of cross-polarizing lenses selectively adjustable for varying the amount of luminance of an Amsler grid as observed by the patient through the eyeglasses. By adjusting the relative polarization of the lenses separately for each eye until the patient is barely able to see the Amsler grid, the sensitivity of the patient's eyes to the presence of scotomas is greatly increased. By having patients record the presence of scotomas while observing the Amsler grid through the eyeglasses, it is possible to screen patients for visual loss associated with various eye diseases, such as atrophic SMD. Recording the existence of scotomas on a periodic basis enables an ophthalmologist to determine whether atrophic SMD may be advancing to hemorrhagic SMD requiring treatment to prevent permanent loss of central vision.
