Sculpting Implants in situ: Light-Adjustable Intraocular Lens

This video was recorded at Kolokviji na Institutu "Jožef Stefan". Ko se naše očesne leče z leti starajo, se pogosto razvije očesna mrena. Vsako leto se opravi preko 14 milijonov operacij, kjer se očesna mrena odstrani in se vsadijo umetne leče. S trenutno uveljavljenimi lečami še vedno tretjina pacientov z očesno mreno po posegu potrebuje očala za optimalen vid. Da bi dosegli željeni cilj brez dodatnih korekcij, bi morale biti leče sposobne prilagoditve po končani terapiji. Novi materiali, ki so jih razvili na Caltech inštitutu, omogočajo post-operativne neinvazivne korekcije leč. V predavanju bo profesor Julia Kornfield predstavila skupne raziskave s prof. Bob Grubbsom iz Odseka za kemijo in očesnim kirurgom prof. Dan Schwartzem iz UCSF. Skupaj so razvili material, ki omogoča in vivo prilagoditve leč. Svetlobno-prilagodljive leče so se izkazale za uspešne v kliničnih testih saj so rezultati ponovljivi in napovedljivi.
