Computer Eyewear to protect your eyes from Glare and Dry Office Air.
KANSAS CITY- November 24, 2002- SUMA BRAND CORP. announces that THE
SUMACKE™ is now available for purchase.
THE SUMACKE™ is a Computer Eyewear that has been invented by Basimah Khulusi
M.D.
Dr. Khulusi is a Rehabilitation Medicine Physician. For 20 years of clinical practice, she has helped her patients overcome their limitations using all means and ways possible.
When she started using the Computer for research, Dr. Khulusi started having trouble with Glare and Dry eyes. Because of her background in Rehabilitation, she immediately realized what the solution should be. The solutions available in the marketplace were all trying to control Glare at the source. But there were too many sources of Glare! Glare was here, Glare was there and Glare was everywhere!
That led to the invention of THE SUMACKE™.
With two approved patents in the United States, and an International patent pending application, THE SUMACKE™ works by limiting your field of vision to the Computer screen area, thus it allows you to control your visual environment. All that your eyes have to deal with is reading refreshing pixels, which is work enough already! Your eyes do not need to be overwhelmed by taking in the rest of the visual information from the environment when they are already overworked! THE SUMACKE™ eliminates that problem! It eliminates Direct Glare from ceiling lights, desk lamps, windows and all other bright or reflective surfaces; it all but eliminates reflected glare from the lenses of the eyeglasses.
Computer users have been seeking protection for their eyes, most of them have tried all the solutions available in the marketplace today, and they realize that they desperately need something better. Their eyes are being overworked and that is leading to fatigue, absenteeism and loss of productivity.
A number of investigators have indicated that visual symptoms occur in 75 to 90 per cent of all Video Display Terminal (VDT) users. A study released by NIOSH shows that only
22 percent of all VDT users have musculoskeletal disorders, contrary to the popular perception of the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders. Bausch and Lomb reports that nearly 60 million people suffer from eye or vision problems due to computer work. One million new cases are reported each year. In a study conducted by the Department of
Human Factors Engineering, University of Occupational and Environmental Health,
Japan, results showed visual strain occurred after 60 minutes of VDT task.
An attempt to quantify the drop in productivity by the Department of Social Medicine and Health, National University of Singapore, put the figure at a whopping 37%.
The SOLA website states that almost 71% of those reporting symptoms wore glasses
Nationwide survey of optometrists conducted by James Sheedy, Ph.D., in 1991, showed that “conventional treatments, such as prescription lenses or spectacle design changes, alleviated only a portion of the problem, the remaining issues being directly related to the computer work environment.”

Those issues consist of Direct Glare from ceiling lights, desk lamps, windows etc…
Reflected Glare from lenses of eyeglasses that shine light coming from behind into the wearer’s eye from a close proximity, and reflections that bounce back and forth till infinity between lenses and any other reflective surfaces in the surrounding. Also,
Discomfort Glare resulting from disparities in brightness in the field of vision.
And NOW, the solution to problems arising from the Computer work environment is finally here! THE SUMACKE™ cups around the eyes or eyeglasses, it cuts out all the direct Glare from ceiling lights, desk lamps, windows, and other bright and shiny surfaces etc… and it all but eliminates reflective Glare from the lenses of eyeglasses wearers.
NOW, you should let the SUN SHINE IN! and make the lights in your office real bright, because that is healthier for you! Also, you will cut down on the disparity in brightness between your Computer screen and your environment.
THE SUMACKE’s™ Ergonomic, Fashionable, Futuristic Design allows it to fit over eyeglasses without pinching any of the structures of the eyeglasses or the face.
With THE SUMACKE™, all what you will need is a flat computer screen or LCD display and a visit to your eye doctor once per year! For CRT users, THE SUMACKE™ will cut back on the amount of Reflected Glare from the screen that is allowed to enter your eye.
