We have used these, along with corrective lens inserts for people who normally require vision correction. It can be a tight fit, but usually worked.

Hi Beth –

That’s a great idea.

Is there room along the sides of the goggles to drill holes for air flow?
Or could you use a scissor or a hole punch to remove portions of the gasket for the same purpose?

Hi Lucy,

We use corrective lens swimming goggles. A company called Splaqua (http://www.splaqua.com/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.splaqua.com_&d=DwMFAw&c=Pk_HpaIpE_jAoEC9PLIWoQ&r=IOIfPJEZzdtokcIxfRGRSQ&m=gISqS9DgLdIsZ9AzjB3dpMEVmQ5ycBYJxk0k0wHy6xk&s=HafZN39FERHP9CsKOdHFKd66kPDC4rnNstnGUbFQI5c&e=>). I ordered one set of each prescription which are interchangeable with the rubber glasses. They work quite well, however, sometimes they fog up so you need to keep them loose and allow air to flow behind them.

Subject: [megcommunity] MEG-compatible vision correction


Dear MEG Users,

I would like to seek current opinions on vision correction during MEG recordings. I read a thread on this list from 2012 (see below), in which two possibilities were mentioned:


  *   http://www.crsltd.com/tools-for-functional-imaging/mri-patient-comfort/mediglasses/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.crsltd.com_tools-2Dfor-2Dfunctional-2Dimaging_mri-2Dpatient-2Dcomfort_mediglasses_&d=DwMFAw&c=Pk_HpaIpE_jAoEC9PLIWoQ&r=IOIfPJEZzdtokcIxfRGRSQ&m=gISqS9DgLdIsZ9AzjB3dpMEVmQ5ycBYJxk0k0wHy6xk&s=KfqQ_T_ytKyrOh8c6MqMdGdzl_NyWXAPxbEK7RZ45xs&e=>
  *   UVEX sports goggles

The thread is now a few years old so I would be interested to know what you are using currently. We have a plastic frame with interchangeable lenses but the rigid bulky frame means that often the volunteer’s head won’t fit inside the helmet so we end up taping the lenses to the MSR (we have a Elekta Neuromag System), which isn’t ideal.

Are you successfully using something off-the-shelf or have you custom-made an effective solution?

Many thanks for your thoughts and recommendations.

Best wishes,
Lucy

Dear all,



We are using a system by Cambridge Research System http://www.crsltd.com/catalog/medigoggles/medigoggles.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.crsltd.com_catalog_medigoggles_medigoggles.html&d=DwMFAw&c=Pk_HpaIpE_jAoEC9PLIWoQ&r=IOIfPJEZzdtokcIxfRGRSQ&m=gISqS9DgLdIsZ9AzjB3dpMEVmQ5ycBYJxk0k0wHy6xk&s=7_vP0GWxNAa0PRPDoGqelXdNCekstxNj2MdPftOEa2U&e=>



There are two sizes, adult and pediatric available. The head strap seems to be magnetic but it can be replaced easily. Also the silicone pads on the frames are magnetic but they can be removed.



Magnetically yours,

Subject: [megcommunity] Aw: [megcommunity] vision correction

Dear Jed,

UVEX has some sports goggles with a rubber frame and an elastic headband, for which you can get exchangeable lens sets. The goggles just about fit into the CTF helmet (don't know about others). However, if subjects have relatively large heads we still tape the lenses to the forehead with good results.

Betreff: [megcommunity] vision correction
I would like to solicit opinions from MEG researchers on MEG-compatible vision correction.
Plastic frames and lens sets are widely available for use in fMRI, but the frames are often bulky and do not easily fit within the confines of an MEG helmet. In the past we have used the effective but inelegant method of simply taping lenses to a subject's face. We have considered a few other exotic options such as prescription swim goggles (also somewhat bulky and only available in negative diopters).
As we move into more clinical studies in elderly populations, it is less viable to simply limit the study to subjects with adequate uncorrected vision or contact lenses.

So I am wondering if anyone out there is particularly happy with a solution that they have used.
Thanks,
Jed
