28 February 2019An original low-power opto-fluidic engine for presbyopia-correcting adaptive eyeglasses
We propose a novel concept of presbyopia-correcting adaptive eyeglasses for people who do not accept current corrective solutions. Our eyeglasses provide clear vision at all distances automatically and feature enhanced field of vision and high optical quality. The adaptive technology relies on an original fluid-filled lens whose focusing power is set by a low-power microfluidic pump inserted in the eyeglass temples. We present our prototype and demonstrate the viability of our technology through its characterization.
