Human Eye Gives Researchers Visionary Design for New, More Natural Lens Technology

Human Eye Gives Researchers Visionary Design for New, More Natural Lens Technology

 


The material naturally architectures, multilayered plastic layers of the butterfly wing scales, human tendons, and even as those found in the human eye, active growth occurring to apply mechanical force, novel reflective features, discoveries and products with improved power and optics, "Ponting explains.

In order for the lens layers, a multilayer film coextrusion technology team (to create a simple multilayer structure used method) is used. This unique construction technology refractive index of each layer in the layer and size can smile optics allows that.

This unique refractive index of the film nanolayered any combination provides the freedom to drift. The most important and smile through other construction techniques has enabled the construction of unsurpassed optics.

Small medical imaging devices or implantable lens optics smile I can use. Ponting said: "A human eye lens is the first step towards transportation capabilities, potentially biocompatible implants and possibly deformable optical materials used in the system is necessary to improve existing technology,".

Current generation intraocular lens replacement, cataract, like those used to treat, as they focus on a precise prescription of the use of contacts or eye glasses. Unfortunately, intraocular lenses natural lens to achieve the same performance because they lack the ability to incrementally change the refraction of light. This is a refraction lens aberrations and other undesirable alternatives can generate optical effects.



Case Western Reserve before this technology from research labs to commercialization has been transferred to PolymerPlus.
