Apple investigating expansion into major health hardware [u] – AppleInsider

Wednesday, April 15th, 2020

Important update: the photomedicine patent reported on here was mistakenly assigned to Apple. Inventor Dan Anderson has filed the US Patent office for a correction.

Thanks to Dan Anderson for contacting AppleInsider with copies of his correction paperwork. We are leaving the rest of the original story here as it has been widely circulated and so links back to this piece will now show the correction. For completeness, the newly corrected assignee is Topcon Medical Laser Systems Inc.

This isn't something you're going to see added to the Apple Pencil. It's not something Tim Cook is likely to announce at some future WWDC alongside an ARM Mac. But Apple's widespread, wide-scale work on health now includes research into areas more associated with hospital equipment than iPhones.

"Area scanning photomedicine device and method," US Patent No 10,617,564, is a detailed patent application which covers an extremely broad range of medical issues but chiefly does so with one purpose.

"[It is a] system and method for treating a lesion on target tissue," says the patent.

Currently, so-called superficial lesions "[meaning that] the lesion is on or near the surface of target tissue" can be treated using light. The patent lists countless applications including, for instance, photodynamic therapy (PDT) which, typically in combination with a light-sensitive drug, uses a light source to destroy cancer cells.

Light is also used in, for example, "gynecology, gastroenterology, and thoracic surgery," and Apple notes that this is far from an exhaustive list. However, Apple also notes that "although the details of the approaches vary due to the anatomical differences presented, the fundamental underpinnings are the same." And it's these underpinnings that Apple wants to address with this patent.

"[Currently] one must provide treatment light to the targeted lesion," says the patent. "To date, this has been done primarily with broad-brush application of light to the lesion and its surrounding tissue. While this has the advantage of being straightforward, it also limits the ultimate clinical efficacy by increasing the side effect profile."

In other words, the "therapies are not sufficiently site-selective," and this is a problem because the "irradiation of adjacent tissue causes more damage than is necessary." What Apple is ultimately proposing is a new system of much finer accuracy when aiming and using light treatments on lesions.

"The present invention solves the aforementioned problems by providing a multipurpose system for performing a variety of photomedical procedures that is based on contiguous scanning of a continuous wave (cw) or quasi-cw light source," claims the patent.

Apple's plan is for a device that combines different systems. It starts with a "visualization device" for "capturing an image of target tissue containing a lesion." Then when that image is acquired, it has a targeting system that combines a light source, a scanner device that can aim that light, and an overall controller.

The Apple device first captures an image that can show precisely where the boundaries of the lesion extend. Then it projects "treatment pattern onto the target tissue."

Most of the patent application's drawings are either examples of lesion patterns, or block diagrams of the combination of light source and controllers. There's no sketch of a doctor wielding an iPhone. If Apple's patent results in new hardware, it's going to be hospital-grade machinery rather than something that'll be featured in a Today at Apple store demo.

The invention is credited to Dan Anderson and David Mordaunt, each of whom have more than sixty prior patents, the majority of which are in related fields such as Anderson's "System and method for determining dosimetry in ophthalmic photomedicine," or Mordaunt's "Photomedical treatment system and method with a virtual aiming device."

Senior railway officials told The Hindu on Friday that the plan was to recruit 36 doctors of which 27 would be general duty medical officers; three anaesthetists; three general medicine and three chest physicians. Thirty-six nurses and and an equal number of hospital attendants are proposed to be recruited. A total number of 72 housekeeping assistant would be recruited and 12 each for the posts of pharmacist, lab assistant and radiographer.

As per the notification, the online interview for the contract medical practitioners (doctors) was scheduled on April 16, while it was April 17 for the posts of nurses and pharmacist. The online interview for lab assistant, radiographer, hospital attendant and housekeeping assistant was slated on April 18. The doctors and para-medical staff were expected to be recruited before this month-end and posted in shifts, a senior official attached to the Medical Department said.

Experts: In rare cases, pink eye was an early warning sign of coronavirus – WTHR

Monday, April 6th, 2020

HOUSTON (KHOU11) Theres another possible symptom to add to the list of early warning signs of coronavirus.

Conjunctivitis, commonly known as pink eye, has been seen in some patients, although it's rare.

But if you have pink eye -- along with other common symptoms like fever, dry cough and shortness of breath -- you should call your doctor.

On March 30, the American Academy of Opthalmology alerted doctors that patients who need to be treated for pink eyewho also have a fever and respiratory symptoms and/or have traveled to high-risk areas -- may have COVID-19. As a result, they warned doctors to cover their mouth, nose and eyes when treating these patients, and to disinfect tools and office areas well afterward.

It isnt surprising that coronavirus could cause this symptom, Dr. Richard Watkins, infectious disease physician and professor of internal medicine at Northeast Ohio Medical University, told Prevention.

Neither the CDC nor World Health Organization has confirmed pink eye as a symptom of coronavirus.

But experts say it wouldnt be surprising.

Awareness, early screening key to treating glaucoma – The Hindu

Monday, March 9th, 2020

A series of paintings on inspiring figures ranging from Mother Teresa and Subramania Bharati to Mirra Alfassa, or The Mother, who founded Auroville and former President APJ Abdul Kalam has been hosted at the Gandhi Thidal as part of a campaign to raise glaucoma awareness.

The exhibition, jointly organised by Aravind Eye Hospital and Puducherry Municipality, throws light on the sneak thief of sight, which is an oft-cited epithet for one of the important causes for irreversible blindness caused by a condition where the visual nerve gets damaged because of the rise in pressure within the eye.

This disease has no warning symptoms till it reaches an advanced stage and because of its irreversible nature, it is important to get screened at the stage.

Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness and the top cause of irreversible blindness in the world. In India, more than 12 million people are affected by this disease, but only 5-10% are aware about it.

S. Sivakumar, Commissioner, Puducherry Municipality, opened the exhibition on Saturday in the presence of V. Govindaradjou, president, Rotary club of Pondicherry Elites.

The exhibition curated by R. Venkatesh, Chief Medical Officer of Aravind Eye Hospital, was hosted as part of the World Glaucoma Week, which is a joint initiative of the World Glaucoma Association and the World Glaucoma Patient Association.

According to slides exhibited at the event, glaucoma more commonly affects people beyond the age of 40. So it is recommended that everyone must have a regular eye checkup after this age.

A positive family history has been proven to be a strong risk factor for glaucoma. Strengthening family screening and bringing awareness in families and communities will help reduce blindness due to glaucoma.

As there are very few symptoms in the earlier stages of glaucoma, most people are unaware till the time they lose significant amount of vision. Early diagnosis can reduce progression of the disease and prevent blindness. Since staying informed is the first step to tackle glaucoma, there is a great need to create public awareness on the importance of periodic screening, Aravind Hospital said.

Jipmers Opthalmology department will be screening public and health care workers of the institution for glaucoma in the Eye OPD from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. from (Monday) to March 14 (Saturday). The glaucoma screening is done by checking the eye pressure by a non-contact method and examining the optic nerve using a fundus camera, Subashini Kaliaperumal, Professor and Head of Ophthalmology, Jipmer, said.

This year, the special focus is on family members (siblings and offsprings) of glaucoma patients.

Washington University St. Louis School Of Medicine Ophthalmology Provides Valuable Funding To Kids Vision For Life St. Louis – Suburban Journals

Sunday, February 23rd, 2020

MEDIA CONTACT: JJ Scarbrough

WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY ST. LOUIS SCHOOL OF MEDICINE OPTHALMOLOGY PROVIDES VALUABLE FUNDING TO KIDS VISION FOR LIFE ST. LOUIS

ST. LOUIS (February 19th, 2020) Washington University St. Louis School of Medicine Ophthalmology recently provided funding to equip 1,000 students with prescription eyeglasses through Kids Vision for Life St. Louis (KVFL) mobile clinic program. Research indicates, upwards of 67% of children never see an eye doctor after the parent or guardian is notified of a vision impairment through an initial screeningdespite the school districts' continued efforts to follow-up. Barriers that prevent follow-up often include: 1) family economics, 2) lack of transportation, 3) loss of work to take a child for appointments, and 4) lack of awareness of the importance of being able to see well in order to read and learn well.

KVFL provides free vision services and eyeglasses for elementary students in low-income areas. Over 60,000 screenings are conducted annually at 175 schools in the St. Louis area.

I appreciate you coming to my school. I have been having a difficult time seeing in class. I cant wait to get my glasses! Thank you. Lily (Lift for Life Academy)

Omaha eye surgeon travels the world to offer vision and hope – KETV Omaha

Tuesday, February 18th, 2020

In a couple weeks, he'll go to South America. A few months ago, he traveled to India and this summer he will return. Omaha eye surgeon, Dr. Donny Suh, (pronounced "saw"), is no stranger to volunteer mission trips, first traveling to offer his expertise and services more than 20 years ago with the vising saving organization, Orbis. "I feel very honored and privileged," said Suh, who took a moment from his work as Chief of Pediatric Opthalmology at Children's Hospital and Medical Center, to talk about his volunteer work. Suh also teaches at the University of Nebraska Medical Center and he see patients at Nebraska Medicine where he tackles the most challenging eye issues. He recently returned from a trip to Bihar State, India, where he helped with hospital based training doing cataract surgeries on children. Suh supervised 18 surgeries with trained Indian doctors, showing them how to use the latest surgical equipment provided by the non-profit, Orbis. "This place was particularly advanced. But they were using equipment that was 20 to 30 years old," he said.Surgeons in that hospital perform about 300 surgeries a day. Orbis has 400 volunteer faculty worldwide from more than 30 countries working to prevent blindness around the globe. In Omaha, Suh said he might see two or three children per week with cataracts. About a billion people worldwide have a vision issue that could be prevented or hasn't been addressed. Suh said pediatric cataracts are very common in India because of malnutrition, poor prenatal care and a lack of immunizations. Cataracts make the lens of the eye more opaque, blocking light and causing blindness. "We were in the poorest part of India where everyone lives day to day," said Suh. He said the team of doctors and nurses worked out of an inspiring eye hospital which served multiple purposes. He said the man who built Akhand Jyoti Hospital/School saw the need to serve some of the poorest people on Earth, but also he built it as an educational opportunity to hire girls to work there, train, study, play soccer, and become optometrists."He saw that a lot of girls were being married as teenagers and wanted more for them," said Suh. He said more than 500 young women are now working as eye doctors. Suh often talks about the role vision plays in all aspects of life, especially for a growing child."Vision is responsible for 75 to 85-percent of development. Sight is not just sight. It gives people hope," said Suh. He said he's seen multiple children over the years who couldn't even take their first steps until they were able to see others walk and model the behavior."They would get up and walk the very next day after surgery," he said.KETV has reported on Suh in the past, featuring his efforts to bring vision screenings, training, and an eye clinic to Guatemala. The South Korea native who grew up in dire poverty with his brother and single mom said it's his mission to give back to others, especially in third-world countries. In his recent book, "Catching a Star: My Story of Hope", Suh talks about his childhood, his desire to help others, and life-changing encounters with patients.He writes about a mother who gave birth to a child with multiple genetic and health challenges including a lack of clear vision because of cataracts. Doctors said the baby had just months to live. Suh said the mother begged him to do eye surgery on the child so that when her baby met her in heaven one day, the child would recognize her face. Suh said he was deeply moved by the mother's request and told her, "I will give you my 100-percent so that the baby can see you after surgery."He said, the next day, the baby couldn't stop staring at the mother's face. The child is now 3 and a half years old. "It's truly incredible," said Suh. He believes vision played a large part in helping the child to live. All proceeds from the sale of Suh's book will go toward medical missions and helping children to see. His book is available on Amazon.

In a couple weeks, he'll go to South America. A few months ago, he traveled to India and this summer he will return. Omaha eye surgeon, Dr. Donny Suh, (pronounced "saw"), is no stranger to volunteer mission trips, first traveling to offer his expertise and services more than 20 years ago with the vising saving organization, Orbis.

"I feel very honored and privileged," said Suh, who took a moment from his work as Chief of Pediatric Opthalmology at Children's Hospital and Medical Center, to talk about his volunteer work. Suh also teaches at the University of Nebraska Medical Center and he see patients at Nebraska Medicine where he tackles the most challenging eye issues.

Dr. Suh takes pride in helping to train eye surgeons with the latest technology.

He recently returned from a trip to Bihar State, India, where he helped with hospital based training doing cataract surgeries on children. Suh supervised 18 surgeries with trained Indian doctors, showing them how to use the latest surgical equipment provided by the non-profit, Orbis.

"This place was particularly advanced. But they were using equipment that was 20 to 30 years old," he said.

Surgeons in that hospital perform about 300 surgeries a day.

Orbis has 400 volunteer faculty worldwide from more than 30 countries working to prevent blindness around the globe.

In Omaha, Suh said he might see two or three children per week with cataracts.

About a billion people worldwide have a vision issue that could be prevented or hasn't been addressed.

Dr. Donny Suh has volunteered on mission trips for 20 years.

Suh said pediatric cataracts are very common in India because of malnutrition, poor prenatal care and a lack of immunizations. Cataracts make the lens of the eye more opaque, blocking light and causing blindness.

"We were in the poorest part of India where everyone lives day to day," said Suh. He said the team of doctors and nurses worked out of an inspiring eye hospital which served multiple purposes. He said the man who built Akhand Jyoti Hospital/School saw the need to serve some of the poorest people on Earth, but also he built it as an educational opportunity to hire girls to work there, train, study, play soccer, and become optometrists.

"He saw that a lot of girls were being married as teenagers and wanted more for them," said Suh. He said more than 500 young women are now working as eye doctors.

Suh often talks about the role vision plays in all aspects of life, especially for a growing child.

"Vision is responsible for 75 to 85-percent of development. Sight is not just sight. It gives people hope," said Suh.

He said he's seen multiple children over the years who couldn't even take their first steps until they were able to see others walk and model the behavior.

"They would get up and walk the very next day after surgery," he said.

KETV has reported on Suh in the past, featuring his efforts to bring vision screenings, training, and an eye clinic to Guatemala.

The South Korea native who grew up in dire poverty with his brother and single mom said it's his mission to give back to others, especially in third-world countries.

Suh and his brother were born in South Korea.

In his recent book, "Catching a Star: My Story of Hope", Suh talks about his childhood, his desire to help others, and life-changing encounters with patients.

He writes about a mother who gave birth to a child with multiple genetic and health challenges including a lack of clear vision because of cataracts. Doctors said the baby had just months to live.

Lutein mkt projected to be valued at $454.8 mn by ’26, growing at 6.4% | FNB News – fnbnews.com

Thursday, February 13th, 2020

The global lutein market was calculated to be worth $274.6 million in the year 2018, and is projected to be valued at $454.8 million by the year 2026, delivering a CAGR of 6.4 per cent in that duration.

The rising incidences of cataract and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) have influenced the demand for lutein.

The fact that lutein is beneficial for the eyes and can protect and maintain healthy cells in the eyes, especially with our ever-increasing exposure to blue light, has led to the increased adoption of lutein supplements, and will subsequently bring to light more growth opportunities.

Lutein, an antioxidant carotenoid, is one of the two essential carotenoids that act as colour pigments in the human eye, and also gives the yellow colour to fruits and vegetables. In the eye, it acts as a light filter and prevents the eye tissues against damages caused by sunlight.

This article has been designed to encompass all vital aspects of the lutein industry that influence the growth of the sector. The companies functioning in the sector are undertaking strategic initiatives to gain a competitive advantage against all rival companies.

The major companies operating in the industry are Allied Biotech, BASF, Chr. Hansen, Dhler, DDW The Color House, E I D Parry, Fenchem, Lycored, PIVEG, and Zhejiang Medicine.

Back in 2015, DSM and Kemin had extended their partnership, launching FloraGlo Lutein, an eye health solution suitable for effective eye health ingredients.

In September 2019, the US-based company EyePromise debuted Screen Shield Pro as the latest addition to its eye vitamin range.

The product has been created with lutein and naturally-derived zeaxanthin to help prevent the eyes from damage caused by screens.

Based on form, lutein is mainly available in the forms of powder and crystalline, oil suspension, beadlet, and emulsion, whereas based on source, lutein is derived from natural as well as synthetic sources, and have major applications in the food and beverages sector.

Based on source, natural lutein is estimated to achieve a sizable growth due to the health benefits it offers.

However, synthetic lutein will dominate the market as it is easy to manufacture and are cost comparatively less than natural lutein.

The integration of lutein into dietary supplements will account for 27.4 per cent of the global market share.

Lutein has found extensive usage in eye care supplements and can also effectively prevent breast cancer, colon cancer, type 2 diabetes, and heart diseases.

The market extends to five major regions across the globe, viz., North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle-East and Africa.

Reports and Data estimates that the lutein market in the North American region will control the biggest portion of the global industry, and the Asia Pacific market will register the highest growth rate of 8.2 per cent in the forecast duration between 2020 and 2026.

The rising incidences of cataract and AMD in the region will drive the demand for the product in the region.

Data from the American Academy of Opthalmology indicates that nearly 24.4 million Americans aged 40 and older are affected by cataract, while almost 2.1 million Americans over 50 have late AMD, which leads to severe vision impairment.

Overall, the global lutein market exhibits tremendous growth potential for this decade, primarily originating from the increasing awareness among the population regarding the numerous health benefits of consuming lutein.
