A pharmacologic agent is applied to the eye to cause a reduction in the size of the pupil of the eye. The pupil is aligned with a visible feature of a mask comprising a pin-hole ... 07/13/06 - 20060155372 - Ocular auto-focusing lenses The present invention relates to an ocular, variable-focus lens, and in particular, to an ocular, fluid-focussed, accommodating lens having first and second fluids which are in contact over a meniscus of changeable shape, for the restoration or improvement of vision in a patient. ... 06/01/06 - 20060116761 - One-piece minicapsulorhexis valve A one-piece capsulorhexis device is presented comprising a membrane having a curved, flexible substantially discoid flap-valve member shaped to align with an ocular lens capsular bag inner surface, and at least one integral, flexible retainer shaped to align with an ocular lens capsular bag outer surface. ... 06/01/06 - 20060116760 - Apparatus and method for treating presbyopia and other eye conditions As humans age, there is a general loss of accommodation, termed presbyopia, which eventually leaves the eye unable to focus on near objects. This loss in ability to focus on near objects is a consequence of continued growth of the lens and crowding of the lens, zonules and ciliary body ... 06/01/06 - 20060116759 - Method of treating presbyopia and other eye conditions As humans age, there is a general loss of accommodation, termed presbyopia, which eventually leaves the eye unable to focus on near objects. This loss in ability to focus on near objects is a consequence of continued growth of the lens and crowding of the lens, zonules and ciliary body ... 05/25/06 - 20060111775 - Segmented scleral band for treatment of presbyopia and other eye disorders A segmented scleral expansion band adapted for implantation within or fastening to a segment of the sclera of an eye lying outside of and adjacent to the ciliary body of the eye, is formed from a number of arcuate segments, curved to match the curvature of the globe of the ... 05/18/06 - 20060106457 - Segmented scleral band for treatment of presbyopia and other eye disorders A segmented scleral expansion band adapted for implantation within or fastening to a segment of the sclera of an eye lying outside of and adjacent to the ciliary body of the eye, is formed from a number of arcuate segments, curved to match the curvature of the globe of the ... 05/11/06 - 20060100700 - Meatal occluder for closing a lachrymal meatus A meatal occluder for closing a lachrymal meatus of a human eye includes a substantially cylindrical body (10). It further includes at least one fin (13) adapted to take up a folded position, wherein the fin (13) is substantially folded into the cylindrical body (10), and an extended position wherein ... 05/04/06 - 20060095126 - Scleral expansion device having duck bill A prosthesis for scleral expansion includes a central body portion and at least one end portion having a width greater than the width of the central body portion. The end portion therefore inhibits rotation of the prosthesis about a long axis when the prosthesis is implanted within a scleral pocket ... 04/06/06 - 20060074487 - Intraocular device for the restoring visual accommodation of presbiopic eye A device for treating an eye affection related to a decrease of ocular accommodation amplitude resulting from loss of tension of the zonular fibers caused by increase in the lens diameter.
