Flipper for Cataract and AMD

DESCRIPTION

Flipper for contrast vision testing of patients with cataracts and age-related macular degeneration.

A cataract causes a clouding of the crystalline lens of the eye and a progressive decline in visual acuity and contrast sensitivity.

Age-related macular degeneration is a genetically transmissible disease and is responsible for an increasing number of cases of low vision. The condition affects the macular region, the area which enables us to see objects in central vision. A slight visual discomfort at first, more or less then gradually the lesion increases to form a central spot to form a central spot - scotoma. Near vision rapidly becomes difficult.

UV light is harmful to the eye, but it has been shown that blue light also has a harmful effect. These are the short, energetic waves of daylight. When it enters the eye, its diffusion creates deformation of the image on the retina, leading to a reduction in contrast. The purpose of the filters is to suppress this light to make vision more comfortable. Sensitivity to glare will be reduced. There is an increase in contrast and acuity, and therefore comfort. The filter will select the wavelengths that can enter the eye.
