Description

{Glasses for amblyopia correction}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an eyeglasses for correcting amblyopia, and more particularly to an eyeglasses correcting eye for treating and correcting an eye disease such as amblyopia.

With reference to the prior art described in Korean Patent Publication No. 2008-0097737, the term "visual acuity" means the ability of the eye to recognize the shape or existence of an object. Visual acuity is influenced by refractive error or ocular disease. Refractive errors are expressed as raw, nearsightedness, correction, uncorrected visual acuity according to several different methods. However, when glasses or contact lenses are the premise, It has meaning.

These problems include amblyopia that is not corrected even when wearing glasses or contact lenses, or surgery, and strabismus that may cause apparent problems. This means that the eye is not corrected by eyeglasses because there is a visual deterioration in one eye or both eyes without any disease in the retina due to ophthalmologic close examination. Such amblyopia is a fatal problem that can lead to blindness.

Conventional methods for improving amblyopia include using an occlusion therapy using intensive cyanide to cover the normal eye with an eyelid or a vein, and putting atopic eye drops into a good eye to blur the good eye to use the cyanide.

The conventional method has the effect of restoring the cyanide to some extent, but has a problem of reducing the visual acuity of the normal eye in order to prevent the normal eye from being used for a long time and to recover the cyanide. In addition, depending on the degree of amblyopia, the time for occlusion therapy differs from person to person, and it is possible to solve the problem that the visual acuity of the normal eye is lowered by restoring the cyanide by performing occlusion therapy according to the allocated time, The time that was performed should be checked one by one and the occlusion time allocated for the apparent reason or the rejection of the occlusion therapy could not be satisfied.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to easily ascertain whether or not wearing glasses for correcting amblyopia and wearing glasses for treatment, It is an object of the present invention to provide an eyeglass correcting eyeglass which can induce an eyeglass to be removed by generating an alarm when a time set for wearing the eyeglasses has elapsed.
