20110102562MULTI-SPECTRAL STEREOGRAPHIC DISPLAY SYSTEM WITH ADDITIVE AND SUBTRACTIVE TECHNIQUES - A multi-spectral stereoscopic display system with additive and subtractive techniques is disclosed. Stereographic images may be presented and viewed via two sets of spectral bands that may have low or no overlap with each other. The color balances of a left-eye image and a right-eye image may be almost matching or identical. The left-eye image and the right-eye image may each be a full-color image with neutral color balance, even without modifying the color balance of original image content. Additive and subtractive techniques may provide spectral content within these sets of spectral bands. Subtractive techniques may include spectral filters. Additive techniques may include multi-spectral illuminants. An arrangement of a set of spectral bands may correspond to natural resonant characteristics. The spectral bands may be determined independently of conventional RGB designation of spectral bands. This system may operate independently of polarization techniques and electronic processes for color balance modifications.05-05-2011
20110102563MULTI-SPECTRAL STEREOGRAPHIC DISPLAY SYSTEM - A multi-spectral stereoscopic display system is disclosed. A left-eye image may be presented and viewed via a first set of spectral bands. A right-eye image may be presented and viewed via a second set of spectral bands. The two sets of spectral bands may have low or no overlap with each other. The color balances of the left-eye image and the right-eye image may be almost matching or identical. The left-eye image and the right-eye image may each be a full-color image with neutral color balance, even without modifying the color balance of original image content. Thin-film optical interference filters may provide pass-bands corresponding to these sets of spectral bands. The filter design may lead to an inexpensive viewing apparatus that can be mass-produced using inexpensive glass or polymer substrates. This system does not rely on polarization techniques and may be used with a white or metallic display screen.05-05-2011

20110009958Ocular Implants and Methods for Delivering Ocular Implants Into the Eye - An ocular implant is provided. In some embodiments, the ocular implant includes a body that is curved about a longitudinal central axis and a distal body portion that defines a longitudinal channel including a channel opening. The implant is sized and configured such that the ocular implant assumes an orientation in which the channel opening is adjacent a major side of Schlemm's canal when the ocular implant is disposed in Schlemm's canal. Methods for delivering ocular implants into Schlemm's canal are also provided. Some methods include covering openings in the ocular implant, advancing the implant into Schlemm's canal while at least some of the openings are covered, and uncovering the openings while the distal portion of the implant is disposed in Schlemm's canal.01-13-2011
20110098809Ocular Implant System and Method - An ocular implant and delivery system having a channel tool adapted to extend through at least a portion of Schlemm's canal of a human eye and to determine whether the Schlemm's canal portion provides a suitable location for the delivery of an ocular implant; an ocular implant adapted to be disposed within Schlemm's canal of a human eye; and a cannula comprising a distal opening adapted to deliver the channel tool and the ocular implant into Schlemm's canal of the eye. The invention also provides a method of treating glaucoma in a human eye including the steps of inserting a distal exit port of a cannula at least partially into Schlemm's canal of the eye; delivering a channel tool through the cannula into Schlemm's canal; delivering an ocular implant through the cannula into Schlemm's canal; and removing the channel tool and the cannula from the eye while leaving the ocular implant in place within Schlemm's canal.04-28-2011
