  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 1, which is a simplified illustration of a field to view widening telescopic implant 10 implanted in the eye of a wearer wearing a contact lens 12. It is seen that both the contact lens 12 and the implant 10 cooperate to widen the field of view of the user.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 2, which is a simplified illustration of a field of view widening telescopic implant 16 implanted in the eye of a wearer not wearing glasses or contact lenses. Here the implant 16 is operative to widen the field of view of the user.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 3, which is a simplified illustration of a field of view widening telescopic implant 20 implanted in the eye of a wearer wearing glasses 22. It is seen that both the glasses 22 and the implant 20 cooperate to widen the field of view of the user.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 4, which is a simplified sectional illustration of a field of view widening telescopic implant constructed and operative in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of Fig. 4 can be employed in any of the operational contexts shown in FIGS. 1-3 with suitable selection of lenses. As seen in FIG. 4, the implant preferably comprises an implant body 100, which is supported by haptics 102 via a haptic mounting structure 104. The implant body 100 typically comprises mutually sealed forward and rearward cylindrical housing portions 106 and 108 respectively and a transparent forward window 11O sealing the forward cylindrical portion 106.
  • Typically, the implant body 100 is formed of glass housing portions, which are sealed by glass laser welding.
  • Disposed rearwardly of the forward window 110 in forward cylindrical portion 106 is a negative lens 112. Fixed to negative lens 112 as a doublet is a magnificationl lens 114, which resides partially in the forward cylindrical housing portion 106 and partially in the rearward cylindrical housing portion 108. Disposed rearwvardly of the magnification lens 114 is a positive lens 116, which is mounted in sealing engagement with the rearward cylindrical housing portion 108 of implant body 100 and defines a rearward facing window.
  • Preferably, the negative lens 112 and the positive lens 116 include refractive and diffractive optical elements.
  • Typically, the negative lens 112 and the positive lens 116 are coated with optical coatings.
  • It is an important feature of the present invention that the interior of the implant body 100 is sealed from the exterior thereof, so as to prevent liquids or vapors from entering the implant. It is also an important feature of the present invention that three air gaps, designated by reference numerals 120, 122 and 124, are provided to enhance refraction. The precision of the location of a contact point 126 between lenses 114 and 116 and of a peripheral contact area 128 between lenses 112 and 114 relative to an axis 130 is also of importance to maintain desired focus.
  • In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a resilient 0-ring 132 or other element having a similar function is provided to urge and retain lenses 114 and 116 in touching engagement at contact point 126.
  • Alternatively, the implant body may be formed of a single cylinder or of any suitable number of cylindrical portions. Furthermore, any suitable combination of any suitable number of lenses may be employed. Preferably, the haptics 102 are formed of a suitable polymer, the implant body 100 is formed of biocompatible glass and the forward window 110 and the lens 116 are formed of glass and are laser welded in sealing engagement with body 100.
  • It will be appreciated by persons skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited by what has been particularly shown and described hereinabove.
