Patent ID: 11768316

Abstract:
A new ocular contact lens has been designed to increase the amount of light reaching the retina. The contact lens edge is chamfered to redirect and increase the light reaching the retina. A light source encircles and contacts the straight or curved chamfered edge. Additionally, a reflective cylinder and its top wall encircle the lens to block any loss of light. This distal edge of the contact lens may be rounded to increase the angle of retina visible. A new ocular imaging camera has a low-light camera subassembly with server, a photosensor next to low-light camera, a short cylindrical housing, a space between the camera subassembly and the housing, an internal program in server to detect good or poor image quality and an alarm for poor image quality, wherein an operator recaptures the image. A system has a highly efficient method to screen and diagnose a large number of patients using the new ocular contact lens and ocular imaging camera. The system receives and processes the photographs. The photographs are transmitted to eye care specialists' smart phone, tablet or virtual reality device for evaluation. As specified, the eye care specialist separates normal from abnormal, diagnoses the abnormality, and may even provide detailed information, such as the grade of the abnormality. The server receives this information and automatically generates the suitable report for the healthcare professional. The server also processes payment to the eye care specialist.
