Description

-1 P/00/011 28/5/91 Regulation 3.2 AUSTRALIA Patents Act 1990 ORIGINAL COMPLETE SPECIFICATION STANDARD PATENT Name of Applicant: Clayton Earl Martin Actual Inventor Clayton Earl Martin Address for service is: WRAYS Ground Floor, 56 Ord Street West Perth WA 6005 Attorney code: WR Invention Title: Lens Composition The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it known to me:- -2 "Lens composition" Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lens composition. More particularly, the lens composition of the present invention is intended to remove or at least 5 substantially decrease the transmission through the lens of potentially damaging components, including but not limited to infrared rays. Background Art Optical lenses are used in a variety of circumstances. Such circumstances include glasses and sun glasses intended to be worn by individuals to aid in the 10 correction of defects in their sight and/or in the protection of their eyes from glare and harmful UV rays that are commonly present. However, the effectiveness of presently known lenses varies greatly in this regard. Present optical lenses are generally without any role in therapeutic treatment and remedies of physical and mental conditions. 15 One object of the present invention is to provide a lens composition that provides an improvement in such compared with lens compositions of the prior art, or at least provides a useful alternative thereto. Throughout this specification, unless the context requires otherwise, the word "comprise", or variations such as "comprises" or "comprising", will be understood 20 to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers. The preceding discussion of the background art is intended to facilitate an understanding of the present invention only. It should be appreciated that the discussion is not an acknowledgement or admission that any of the material 25 referred to was part of the common general knowledge in Australia as at the priority date of the application.
-3 It is to be understood that the term "lens" is to be interpreted broadly herein unless the context clearly requires otherwise. For example, "lens" may include a sheet or block of material without any magnifying effect, such as a window. 5 Disclosure of the Invention In accordance with the present invention there is provided a lens composition comprising lithium bicarbonate and vitamin C. Preferably, the lithium bicarbonate is present at a concentration of between about 2-20% by weight. 10 In accordance with the present invention there is further provided a method for the treatment of an individual suffering from one or more of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression, the method comprising exposing the or each individual to light that has passed through an optical device in which is provided one or more lenses, the composition of the or each lens comprises lithium 15 bicarbonate and vitamin C. Preferably, the concentration of lithium bicarbonate is between about 2-20% by weight. In accordance with the present invention there is still further provided a method for the treatment of an individual suffering from conditions of the eye, the 20 method comprising exposing the or each individual to light that has passed through an optical device in which is provided one or more lenses, the composition of the or each lens comprises lithium bicarbonate and vitamin C. Preferably, the concentration of lithium bicarbonate is between about 2-20% by weight. 25 Best Mode(s) for Carrying Out the Invention In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention a lens composition -4 is provided, the lens composition comprising lithium bicarbonate in addition to the substantive components of a lens, for example various plastic materials and/or glass. Lithium bicarbonate is provided in the lens composition as a concentration of about 2-20% by weight. 5 The lens composition further comprises vitamin C which is also dissolved in the substantive lens material. It is understood by the Applicant that a lens composition in accordance with the present invention is able to function in the promotion of healing of the eye of an individual utilising the lens composition and may further ameliorate or cure diseases and conditions of the brain, such 10 conditions including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. It is envisaged that the incorporation of vitamin C in the lens composition of the present invention provides a flow of neutrinos to the individual exposed to light passed through the lens composition of the present invention. It is further envisaged that symptoms of the conditions noted previously and also biological 15 tissue damage may be healed, at least in part through exposure to light that is passed through a lens composition in accordance with the present invention. It is still further envisaged that the lens composition of the present invention may be utilised in any one or more of car windows, house windows, tanning beds, cameras, microscopes, lasers and additional optical instruments and articles of 20 such general nature. Without being limited by theory, the Applicant believes that the lithium bicarbonate component of the lens composition of the present invention contributes to a greater ease of vision when compared to lenses not formed of the lens composition of the present invention. It is envisaged that lithium 25 bicarbonate absorbs potentially damaging infrared rays present in light that is transmitted through the lens composition. In this way the cornea, lens and retina of the eye are protected, at least in part, from damage that might be caused by those infrared rays. It is further envisaged that the infrared rays absorbed by the lithium carbonate may be converted into rays that contribute to 30 a healing effect in the tissues that they fall on.
-5 In one form of the present invention the lens composition may be "fine tuned" so as to change wave length of the light passing through the lens composition to maximise the healing properties therefrom. For example, the percentage composition of lithium bicarbonate by weight present in the composition may be 5 adjusted by a manufacturer to achieve a desired effect. In a second form of the present invention there is provided a method for the treatment of one or more individuals suffering from conditions of the brain, including one or more of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. This method comprises exposing the or each individual to light that has passed 10 through an optical device in which is provided one or more lenses, the composition of the or each lens being in accordance with that described hereinabove. In a further form of the present invention there is provided a method for the treatment of an individual suffering from conditions of the eye. This method 15 comprising exposing the or each individual to light that has passed through an optical device in which is provided one or more lenses, the composition of the or each lens being in accordance with that described hereinabove. It is clear to the Applicant that all types of spectacles, or glasses, used for the correction of short or long-sightedness, and/or simply for use as sunglasses, are 20 appropriate apparatus in which lenses formed of the lens composition of the present invention may be provided. Modifications and variations such as would be apparent to the skilled addressee are considered to fall within the scope of the present invention.
