A free jet dosage system serves for administering a fluid into an eye. The free jet dosage system includes a micropump having an inlet and an outlet, the micropump being configured to transfer the fluid from the inlet to the outlet and to dispense the fluid at the outlet to the eye as a free jet. The free jet dosage system further includes a sensor configured to sense the eye and to controller a control, and a micropump, wherein the controller is configured to activate the micropump as soon as the eye is sensed by the sensor.

An eye treatment positions a mask device over first and second eyes. A posterior side of the mask device is proximate to the face and the anterior side is distal from the face. The mask device includes an outer wall extending between the anterior and posterior sides and defining a chamber extending across the first and second eyes. The anterior side includes a first transmission region that allows a photoactivating light for the first eye to be delivered into a first section of the chamber positioned over the first eye. The anterior side includes a second transmission region that allows a photoactivating light for the second eye to be delivered into the second section positioned over the second eye. The system includes at least one gas source storing a gas that is different than ambient air. The system includes a gas delivery system that delivers the gas into the chamber.

One applicator for use with ointment includes a housing defining a holding chamber. The holding chamber has a single entrance distinct from a single exit and is flexible such that deformation of the housing reduces capacity of the holding chamber and forces contents of the holding chamber to pass through the exit. A one-way valve is at the entrance for allowing the ointment to enter the holding chamber through the entrance and restricting the ointment from exiting the holding chamber through the entrance. A tip extends from the housing adjacent the exit. The tip has a proximal end meeting the housing and a pliant distal end spaced apart from the housing. The tip distal end is flared from the tip proximal end and has a generally planar leading surface. A channel in the tip extends from the exit to the leading surface, and is flared at the leading surface.

The disclosure relates to medical databases, remote monitoring, diagnosis and treatment systems and methods. In one particular embodiment, a system for remote monitoring, diagnosis, or treatment of eye conditions, disorders and diseases is provided. This method generally includes administering a stream of droplets to the eye of a subject from an ejector device, and storing data related to the administration in a memory of the ejector device. The data may then be monitored and analyzed.

An implant for insertion through a punctum and into a canalicular lumen of a patient. The implant includes a matrix of material, a therapeutic agent dispersed in the matrix of material, a sheath disposed over a portion of the matrix of material and configured to inhibit the therapeutic agent from being released from the matrix of material into the canalicular lumen and to allow the therapeutic agent to be released from a surface of the matrix of material to a tear film, and a retention structure configured to retain the implant within the canalicular lumen.

Disclosed is an intraocular lens device for treatment of an eye including a shape changing membrane configured to outwardly bow in a region surrounding the optical axis of the eye. The lens device also includes a force translation arm configured to move upon movement of the ciliary structure.

Devices that are adapted to insert corneal implants onto corneal tissue. Methods of using the devices include inserting the corneal implant into a pocket created in the cornea. Methods of use also include inserting the corneal implant onto corneal tissue after a flap has been created in the cornea. The devices can be adapted to deliver fluid to an implant holding space to at least assist in the deployment of the implant from the holding space and onto corneal tissue.

Disclosed are devices and methods for delivering a sheet of tissue into the eye in such a way that damage to the tissue is minimized, damage to the eye during insertion and manipulation of the tissue is minimized, and the tissue is released and delivered in a precise and controlled fashion.

A handheld applicator designed to transfer a liquid drop of ophthalmic medicament into a human eye. The basic structure comprises a finger grip section and a drop retainer section, preferably connected to the grip section with an extension. The device is made from an elastomeric material that will allow for the safe transfer of a liquid drop into the eye. A drop dispensed from a container is placed onto the drop retainer section of the device where the surface tension provides drop adhesion. The user may administer the drop, without having to tilt the head, while maintaining an eyeglass assisted view into a mirror. Application of the drop occurs from the peripheral line of vision. When contact is made to the eye, surface tension is relieved and the drop safely transfers into the eye. The same applicator may have a drop retainer section with a different structure on each side.
