The present invention provides reagents and methods for modulating cone photoreceptor activity, and devices for assessment of cone photoreceptor activity.

Reagents and methods for modulating cone photoreceptor activity

Eyeglasses are disclosed that include eyeglass frames and a pair of ophthalmic lenses mounted in the frames. The lenses include a dot pattern distributed across each lens, the dot pattern including an array of dots spaced apart by a distance of 1 mm or less, each dot having a maximum dimension of 0.3 mm or less, the dot pattern including a clear aperture free of dots having a maximum dimension of more than 1 mm, the clear aperture being aligned with a viewing axis of a wearer of the pair of eyeglasses.

Ophthalmic lenses for treating myopia

In a first aspect, the present invention provides methods for creating video signals including (a) receiving an input video signal including an input red component, an input green component, and an input blue component; (b) determining (i) that a magnitude of the input red component is greater than a magnitude of the input green component and (ii) a differential between the magnitude of the input red component and the magnitude of the input green component; and (c) sending an output video signal including an output red component, an output green component, and an output blue component, where at least one of the following is true: (i) the output red component is decreased by a fractional amount relative to the input red component based on the differential; and/or (ii) the output green component is increased by a fractional amount relative to the input green component based on the differential, and the output blue component is increased by a fractional amount relative to the input blue component based on the differential.
