Abstract:
Architectures and techniques for treating conditions of the eye, such as presbyopia, utilize sources of treatment energy, such as electromagnetic energy emitting devices, to implement non-corneal manipulations. According to these devices and methods, the sources of treatment energy are activated to direct energy onto parts of the eye, such as the conjunctiva and sclera, to treat presbyopia. The treatments can affect at least one property of the eye and enhance an accommodation of the eye.
Abstract:
A device for imparting therapeutic doses to living tissue is disclosed. The device includes a planar carrier including or structured to adjustably accommodate a multitude of electrodes. Positions of the electrodes may be altered by a user during a treatment procedure involving the impartation of therapeutic doses to the living tissue.
Abstract:
A device includes a handle coupled with an activated textured surface that can be implemented using a repetitive movement mechanism and a treatment energy source, such as an electromagnetic radiation source. The handle may be used to provide detection, treatment and/or management of sundry conditions including, for example, tooth discoloration, tissue damage, periodontal disease, tumors, pain, halitosis, and bronchitis. The activated textured surface may include a surface topography including corrugations, bristles, protuberances, or pits, or other surfaces for facilitating agitation, cleaning or other surface treatments.
Abstract:
A laser handpiece is described that connects to a laser base unit. The laser handpiece receives laser energy and ancillary inputs from a connector that connects to the laser base unit. A handpiece tip on the laser handpiece directs laser energy to a target surface.
Abstract:
Un dispositivo incluye un mango acoplado con una superficie texturizada activada que puede implementarse utilizando un mecanismo de movimiento repetitivo y una fuente de energia de tratamiento, tal como una fuente de radiacion electromagnetica. El mango puede emplearse para proporcionar deteccion, tratamiento y/o manejo de diversas condiciones incluyendo, por ejemplo, decoloracion de dientes, dano de tejidos, enfermedad periodontal, tumores, dolor, halitosis, y bronquitis. La superficie texturizada activada puede incluir una topografia superficial incluyendo corrugaciones, cerdas, protuberancias, o cavidades, u otras superficies para facilitar agitacion, limpieza u otros tratamientos superficiales.
