Prism Glasses
- Prism Glasses are Designed to Enable a Person Lying on their Back to See Downward (towards their feet).
- MRI Patients Undergoing a Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scan Can Often Become Claustrophobic, Due to the Constraints of the Size of the Magnet Opening
- Prism Glasses Help Patients to Look Out of the Magnet as They Lay Flat on their Back
- MRI Patients Feel as Though they are Less Confined When Wearing Prism Glasses
- Prism Glasses Have Worked Well in Helping Overcome Claustrophobia
- Many Patients have Purchased a Pair of Prism Glasses Before Undergoing their MRI Exam
- Most MRI Centers Should Have a Pair of Prism Glasses on Hand for Patients who Exhibit Claustrophobic Tendancies
- Patients can Wear the Prism Glasses Inside all the Various MRI System Coils, Including the Head Coil
- Prism Glasses are Also Very Useful for People who have Physical Impairments or Physical Limitations, such as those who and Can Not Bend Their Neck to See Sownward
- The Prism Glasses are Also Helpful for Those who are Confined to Bed
- While Lying on Their Back People Wearing Prism Glasses Can Watch a Television at the Foot of their Bed
- Prism Glasses are Similar to a Regular Pair of Glasses in Terms of their Overall Quality
- Prisms are Mounted in Place of the Lenses Allowing the Person to View at an Angle Towards Their Feet
At $73.00 a pair, our Prism Glasses are economical enough that many patients purchase the Prism Glasses before they are about to undergo an MRI Scan, just to help ease their claustrophobia. Anyone buying them for personal use will find that after taking them home, they can also use them to watch television while lying flat on their back, or easily read a book on an airplane by placing the book flat on their tray-table as they look forward towards the seat in front of them.
How Do the Prism Glasses Work? The patient looks up into the Prism Glasses, and the Prisms project the light towards the person's feet, helping to prevent Claustrophobia as they do not experience that closed in feeling. Essentially, the Prism Glasses provide a visual effect of being in an open area. Quite frequently, the Prism Glasses are purchased by patients to take to their MRI exam.
Should I Buy the Prism Glasses to Take With Me When I Go For My Scan? If you are concerned about being claustrophobic, it is definitely worth it to have the Prism Glasses with you when you go for your scan. After the MRI scan, the MRI glasses can be used as bed specs to watch television while lying in bed. The ability to watch TV from bed is very helpful to those who are confined to bed for medical reasons. These Prism Glasses are not just a pair of MRI Glasses. The Prisms are a high quality optical glass. The glasses in prism form make it possible to see outside the M.R.I. magnet, reducing the MRI claustrophobia. The Prism Glasses are non-ferrous and are used by MRI Centers all over the world. The prism is fixed in a single position so that a person lying flat on their back, looking up, will actually see towards their feet.
All Plastic Headphones for MRI Scanners
- Plastic Headphones are Also Referred to as Pneumatic Headphones or Acoustic Headphones
- Vinyl Tubing Carries Sound to the PnuematicHeadphone so the Audio will Reach the Patient's Ears While they are Inside of an MRI Scanner
- No Wires or Metal Parts Can be Used, as Metal Can Distort an MRI Scan and Create Artifacts (Undesirable Lines and Patterns)
- Due to Their All Plastic Design, the Headphones Will Not be Pulled by the MRI System's Magnetic Field and Will Not Interfere with Diagnostic Imaging of the Body
- Our standard pneumatic headphones are an economical "stethoscope-style" plastic headphone
- This headphone will fit inside all MRI System coils
- Eartips can be replaced between patients, providing a sanitary method of sharing the headphone with multiple users
Most MRI Systems produce substantial noise during the gradient coil pulsations; these gradient pulsations are required in order to produce the image slices that are essential for patient imaging. In order to reduce the scanner noise and direct the audio into the patient ears, we developed a Noise Reduction Headphone that cups the outer portion of the ear and directs the audio directly into the ear canal . Foam inside the headphone combined with inner eartips reduce the noise levels substantially, enabling patients to clearly hear the MRI stereo sound and technologist's voice during the scanning sequences.
