Jaume Pauné, the brainchild behind the innovatory novel contact lens devised a non-surgical method of improving eyesight quality among scores of individuals.
Due to his innovatory work in this area, Mr. Jaume Pauné has been granted the National Award from the Spanish Association of Opticians and Optometrists.
Pauné, a Master’s Degree holder in Optometry and Vision Sciences has designed the foremost contact lens which could rectify hyperopia while not needing refractive surgery via a method which reshapes the cornea. The contact lens employs a technique known as orthokeratology which brings about corneal reshaping for correcting eyesight flaws ranging from mild to moderate ranging.
Orthokeratology also known as Ortho-K employs gas-porous eye contacts for reshaping the cornea to rectify eyesight flaws like astigmatism, myopia and hyperopia (mild till moderate ranging) while no need for surgical intervention. Every patient has a tailored-fitting with the exceptional contact lens on his/her eyes.
Non-surgical means of Hyperopia Correction for getting Perfect Eyesight
These eye contacts intended for hyperopia correction are to be worn solely during the night time for comfort’s sake. The contact lens would function by exerting pressure on the tear sheath that swathes the outer portion of the cornea. This kind of pressure exerted would cause modifications in the corneal shape by nearly twenty µm, or nearly half the thickness of a hair filament from a human-being. During the dawn hours, the patient could remove the contact lenses and would be able to see flawlessly. The outcomes are analogous to that of refractive surgery however are impermanent. The new-fangled eye contacts created as a component of a master’s hypothesis by Mr. Jaume, and are obtainable at an introductory rate of one thousand pounds that is inclusive of the costing to design the distinctive lenses for fitting every cornea and another four hundred pounds for yearly replacement contact lenses.
PauneLens and Atenas Vision are marketing these new-fangled lenses.
Conception Process
Mr. Jaume created this innovatory novel contact lens employing existent ortho-K technology. During a global contact lens congregation held in the U.S., Mr. Jaume observed the presentation of the foremost ortho-K lens that was created for treating hyperopia that eventually never made it to the markets. This raised Jaume’s interest and started to experiment with the notion of creating this kind of lens. During the course of his study, he assessed the writing and came to the decision on designing and manufacturing a novel make of the contact lens that he carried test on 10 individuals. From these ten study entrants, one of them was resolute at finding a answer to on-going eyesight issues and did a trial of 6 varied contact lens models, each one of them being used for about a week’s time. In the case of this patient, Jaume uncovered the solution to creating the foremost effectual contact lens for hyperopia correction.
