         “The Eye”

  By: Spokane Valley “Shock”
About the eye



The eye has an outer protecting layer called the sclera. The light passes through
   the sclera, cornea, iris, and finally through the lens. It then focuses on the
   retina.

Hyperopia


Hyperopia, also known as farsightedness, is a defect of vision caused by an
imperfection in the eye (often when the eyeball is too short or the lens
cannot become round enough), causing difficulty focusing on near objects,
and in extreme cases causing a sufferer to be unable to focus on objects at
any distance. As an object moves toward the eye, the eye must increase its
optical power to keep the image in focus on the retina. If the power of the
cornea and lens is insufficient, as in hyperopia, the image will appear blurred
because the image is focused behind the retina.
Myopia (nearsightedness)


Myopia is a condition in which the retina is too
great a distance from the lens, or the lens can’t
flatten enough to focus on the retina. The result is
a blurred image due to focusing of the image in
front of the retina.
The Cure for Hyperopia/
     Myopia Is...
The Hypertronic 3000s
Okay We were kidding…
Who is working on myopia???

A man named Steve Gallop
(http://www.gallopinto
vision.com) is an eye doctor
that lives in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. He has been
researching myopia for 22
years (but during that time
he came up with
NOTHING to cure
myopia).
Current Market Solutions




Contact Lenses   Lasik Surgery   Glasses
Our Solution
               (for Myopia)
• Our proposed
  treatment is a
  mixture of Sodium
  Chloride, water, and
  lidocaine used as eye
  drops (NaCl H2O).
How it works...
                               Osmosis


• http://www.youtube.com/
  watch?
  feature=player_detailpage&
  v=sdiJtDRJQEc
What it does...

• When dropped into an eye,
  NaCl H2O shrinks/takes
  moister out of the eye.
  Therefore, it makes the eye
  smaller TEMPORARILY.
  The amount that the eye
  would shrink would vary
  based on the concentration
  of the salt.
Reason...


We thought that our decision would be
better because people don’t like wearing
glasses everywhere, contacts are a pain to
put in/take out, and lasik surgery scares
people(The whole “Hot light burning your
eyes/cutting your eye open” idea).
