This document discusses technologies for eye care. It begins with an introduction stating that only 25% of existing eye care infrastructure is utilized and 90% utilization is needed. The objective and research methodology are not described. Existing technologies like ophthalmoscopes, autorefractors, slit lamps, and lensometers are presented. New technologies discussed include bionic eyeglasses, Oakley's Thump MP3 glasses with built-in music player, and video eyeglasses using mini projectors. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of regular eye exams and protecting eyes from sun exposure.

3. IntroduCtIon
The Right to Sight estimates that only 25
per cent of existing infrastructure is used
for eye care, while the target utilization is
set at 90 per cent. This requires a complete
reorganization.
Tension, headaches, exhaustion and eye
irritation are all common symptoms of eye.
8. The Ophthalmoscope is a
tool used in medicine to
examine the interior of the
eye. Studying the inner parts
of the eye, such as the optic
disk, retinal blood vessels,
retina, choroid and macula,
can help diagnose diseases of
the eye.
Price in India = Rs. 7,455

9. An Auto-Refractors or
automated refractors is a
computer-controlled machine
used during an eye examination
to provide an objective
measurement of a person's
refractive error and prescription
for glasses or contact lenses. This
is achieved by measuring how
light is changed as it enters a
person's eye.

10. fEaturEs
Color liquid crystal display screen
Measurable minimum pupil diameter is
2.0mm
Compact and Stylish Design
The easyto-load printer enables simple
maintenance. Just drop the paper roll into
the holder.
11. slit lamps
The slit lamp is an instrument consisting
of a high-intensity light source that can
be focused to shine a thin sheet of light
into the eye.
Features of Slit Lamp
Precision machined aluminum
framework
Controllable light from maximum to
zero
Big Slit Lamp features, portable
usability
13. The Lensometer is one of the
more used optical instruments in
the ophthalmology field.
This is a device used for checking
eyeglass lenses to make sure they
are the right prescription. It can
check the sphere, cylinder, or axis
of a lens.

18. Absolute music freedom with no wires or
cords to dangle or tangle
Store up to 240 songs on the 1 GB version,
up to 120 songs on the 512 MB version, or
up to 60 songs on the 256 MB version.
Up to 6 hours of playback time on a single
charge.
Three-color indicator light to show battery
level
Supports storage of data files along with
song files
Includes High Speed USB cable for
transferring song files from Windows PC
20. The glasses can offer QVGA(320 x
240) and VGA (640 x 480)
resolution.
But There are plans to create HD
lenses as technology develops.
