Abstract

An eye mask has magnetic bodies and self-heating warm members, which are inserted in eye pads on a mask member to be placed over eyeball parts. If required, vibrators and illumination bodies may be additionally placed in the eye pads. Thus, fatigue on the eyes and surroundings thereof can be relieved by the magnetic actions of the magnetic bodies and the warming effects of the warming member, in addition to expected effects of restoring ocular functions, recovering from various ocular diseases, and so on. Furthermore, the surface of each of the eye pads is gradually curved like the inner surface of a sphere. When the eye pads are press-contact to the eyeball parts at predetermined pressures for a long time, the cornea can be warmed by the warming members so that the shape of the cornea can be changed along the shape of the eye pad, resulting in the effects of recovering from eye sight disorder such as pseudo-myopia, moderate farsightedness, or moderate astigmatism.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An eye mask, comprising: 
 a mask member to be placed over eyeball parts;    magnetic bodies provided on portions of the mask member, where the portions correspond to the eyeball parts; and    a warming member for warming the eyeball parts, which is provided on the mask member.    
     
     
         2 . An eye mask as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising: 
 eye pads provided on the portions of the mask member corresponding to the eyeball parts, where the magnetic bodies are placed in the eye pads; and    a warming-member housing portion provided on the mask member, where the warming member for warming the eyeball parts is housed.    
     
     
         3 . An eye mask as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein 
 the eye pads are provided for correcting eyesight by pushing the eyeball parts to correct the corneas.    
     
     
         4 . An eye mask as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein 
 slight-vibration generators which give slight vibrations to the eyeball parts are provided on the eye pads.    
     
     
         5 . An eye mask, as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein 
 means for blinking illumination bodies is provided in each of the eyes pads.
