titleOfInvention | C-shaped cross section tubular ophthalmic implant for reduction of intraocular pressure and method of use |
abstract | A C-shaped cross-section latex tube (20) implant for reduction of intraocular pressure. A proximal end (34) serves as a conduit for aqueous humor to bypass angle structures in the eye. A distal end (36) serves as a nidus for the patient's cells and forms a capsule wherein inflation of the capsule forms a tube for conduction of aqueous humor into the extracellular space under the conjunctiva. An anchor comprises a split end of the tube wherein the end of the tube is split multiple times such as a bifurcation (42). The method comprises the steps of implanting the distal portion of the cylindrical tube (32) under the conjunctiva and anchoring the distal end (36) of the cylindrical tube (32) to the sclera at the limbus; inserting the proximal, (34) intact end of the tube (32) into the anterior chamber through a needle track (48); ligating the proximal end (34) to prevent hypotony; and allowing time for a capsule to grow around the tube (32). |
