Meibomian gland roller
11571356 · 2023-02-07 · ·

A Meibomian Gland Roller system allows for self-administered the treatment for a leading cause of dry eyes, namely, tear film oil deficiency. The system combines an effective and safe technique to combine mechanical rolling pressure with heat for meibomian gland drainage. The rolling action of the roller cylinder combined with the roller head to increase effectiveness in empting inspissated meibomian glands. The roller allows the patient to safely start the application of the pressure at the bottom of the glands and effectively roll open clogged oil glands. The washable roller keeps the head clean for long term use. A preheated eye-shaped soft gel pad can prepare the lids before the roller tip is applied by heating and softening the meibomian gland contents, allowing the roller to have a more effective action to induce mechanical extraction of the gland content.

Apparatus for stimulation
11602483 · 2023-03-14 ·

An apparatus for stimulation of erogenous body zones, such as a dildo and/or vibrator, having a through heating repeatedly moldable polymeric core (2) which becomes plastically moldable upon heating to a temperature above about 40° C., and which is dimensionally stable at normal body temperature and below. In result of its moldability, the apparatus can eliminate the need for separate articles for different kinds of stimulation. A tensile and elastic skin (3) encloses the polymeric core (2). The skin smoothens the shape of the apparatus and reduces the need for precision when reshaping the polymeric core.
