Abstract

465,283. Eye appliances. RUSS, C. Nov. 19, 1935, No. 32049. [Class 81 (ii)] Means for the relief of ptosis (paralysis of the eyelid) consists of a magnet arranged in proximity to the paralyzed eyelid, e.g. in a spectacle frame, and an armature attached to or embedded in the eyelid. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 1, a magnet having poles at j I is mounted on a rim a of a spectacle frame by means of a bolt g having locking nuts and adjustable in a slot formed in a bracket e extending at right-angles to the plane of the frame ; the magnet is connected to the frame at its lower part by a hinge device l, m, which permits vertical adjustment. In the modification shown in Fig. 5, the magnet is attached to a frame by clips 7 and adjustment is effected by slidably adjustable nose clips 4. The armature which is preferably employed consists of a sector-shaped strip o secured to a strip q of non-magnetic metal which can be bent to the shape of the eyelid. It is attached to the eyelid by two layers of surgical plaster. A case for containing the appliance when not in use comprises a keeper block u hinged at v and placed so as to contact the poles of the magnet when in the case.
