It becomes a method of improving aqueous humor outflownin one eye and a device for expanding thenSchlemm's canal proposed.n n n According to the method, a first incision andna second arranged within the first incisionnIncision on the surface of the sclera (3) andnby opening each of the trained analogs of the incisionsnscleral lobes (10) and (12) Schlemm's canal (5)nfor injecting a highly viscous medium in the range ofnPart (18) exposed. To form a water permeablenDescemet membrane (6) with a sub-scleralnSpace (13 ') connecting gap (21) with low contact pressurenin the area of the Schwalbeschen line (7) the Descemet membranen(6) detached from the cornea (4). Subsequentlynthe second scleral flap (12) is cut off and the firstnScleral flap (10) placed on a support surface (14) and thensub-scleral space (13 ') before fully suturing withnhighly viscous medium filled.n n n The device for stretching the surgically exposed Schlemm's canal (5) comprises a probe which can be inserted into the Schlemm's canal (5) and which is provided with at least one outlet channel for the medium to be injected and which is used to inject the highly viscous medium via a connecting part and a supply line with a pressure source is in operative connection. |
