Patent number: 11547552Abstract: Methods of manufacturing and implanting corneal inlays, such as small diameter corneal inlays, are provided. The methods include manufacturing an implant body to have a meniscus shape with a small diameter and an index of refraction, and implanting the implant body in a corneal bed of a cornea. The inlays cause a change in an anterior surface of the cornea after implantation due to the implant body.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2020Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: RVO 2.0, INCInventors: Jon Dishler, Troy A. Miller, Alexander Vatz, James R. Alexander

Patent number: 11272986Abstract: A device and a method for producing control data, which are designed to control a laser machining device to surgically correct ametropia of an eye in which, in order to define a space in the cornea, defines a front cutting surface, a rear cutting surface and an edge section, which are to be produced as cutting surfaces in the cornea. The rear cutting surface has a non-circular, oval edge lying in a plane, the edge section connecting the edge to the front cutting surface and the edge section being designed as a non-rotationally symmetrical cylinder or truncated cone, the base of which is the edge.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2017Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Carl Zeiss Meditec AGInventors: Jon Dishler, Mark Bischoff, Gregor Stobrawa

Patent number: 10959883Abstract: A method for generating control data for a treatment device includes providing cornea data based on data of a refractive correction and specifying the cornea incision surfaces. The cornea incision surfaces include a cap incision surface disposed beneath a surface layer of corneal tissue and partially defining a selected lenticule volume and a lenticule incision surface disposed beneath the cap incision surface and further defining the selected lenticule volume. The method further includes generating a control data record for the cornea incision surfaces for purposes of controlling the laser apparatus. The cap incision surface is irregularly shaped and has extensions into surrounding tissue, and/or the lenticule incision surface is irregularly shaped and has extensions into surrounding tissue. The lenticule incision surface and the cap incision surface isolate the selected lenticule volume.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2019Date of Patent: March 30, 2021Assignee: CARL ZEISS MEDITEC AGInventors: Jon Dishler, Mark Bischoff

Patent number: 10575989Abstract: A planning system for generating control data for a treatment device for eye surgery that creates at least two incision surfaces in the cornea using a laser apparatus is provided. The planning system includes a processor configured to specify the cornea incision surfaces based on data of a refractive correction, the cornea incision surfaces including an lenticule incision and a cap incision, at least one of the cap incision or the lenticule incision being irregularly shaped and having extensions to the surrounding tissue, and generate a control data record for the cornea incision surfaces for purposes of controlling the laser apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: CARL ZEISS MEDITEC AGInventors: Jon Dishler, Mark Bischoff

Publication number: 20170128193Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2017Publication date: May 11, 2017Inventors: Ned SCHNEIDER, Alan Ngoc LE, Jon DISHLER

Patent number: 8540727Abstract: Provided therein are apparatuses, systems and methods for storing and retrieving a corneal implant and for delivering the corneal implant in or on the cornea. In an embodiment, a insertion system comprises an inserter for delivering a corneal implant to a desired location in or on the cornea. The inserter has a holding space at its distal end for holding a corneal implant therein. A solution may substantially fill the holding space with the corneal implant to keep the implant hydrated and to hold the implant in the holding space by the surface tension of the solution. The corneal implant may be preloaded in the holding space of the inserter and stored in a storage container filled with storage fluid, e.g., saline, until use. To deliver the corneal implant, the inserter is positioned at the desired location, and the corneal implant released from the holding space of the inserter.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2012Date of Patent: September 24, 2013Assignee: ReVision Optics, Inc.Inventors: Jon Dishler, Ned Schneider, Alan Ngoc Le
