DEVICE FOR PERFORMING IRIDOLOGICAL EXAMINATION Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has double mirror optical system, objective, oculars, general illumination unit with light source and therapeutical unit. The optical system is set in front of the objective. One of mirrors is movable and is rotatable driven by control motors. When placed at an angle of 45 deg to objective axis, mirror enables image visible in objective vision field to be shifted upward and downward in rotating it with one of the motors, to the left and to the right in rotating it with another one. Video camera, analog-to-digital video signal converter, computer with monitor, digital-to-analog converter, two-channel amplifier, manual control unit are introduced for applying automated motor operation control. Computer processes manual control unit signals and video camera signals. The come from video camera through the analog-to-digital converter Control signal produced by computer comes to the motors through the digital-to-analog converter and two-channel amplifier controlling stabilization and displacement of images on the computer monitor screen. The therapeutic unit has its own light source, fiber light guide, a set of color filters and a set of iridological grids of human body zone projections on the iris. The iridological grids are set with color light filters on rotating disks. Rotating disk is placed between objective and light source unit in front of the ocular. EFFECT: stable image position on display screen in cases of specific deviations of an eye, like tremor, being available in the device vision field; facilitated iridoanalysis and iridotherapy control. 2 dwg
