  • Patent number: 11786122
    Abstract: An apparatus to treat, inhibit, or prevent an eye condition in a patient can include a cover, sized and shaped to fit over an eye of a patient to define a cavity between the cover and an anterior surface of the eye when the cover is located over the patient eye. The apparatus can include a pressure source, in communication with the cavity, capable of applying non-ambient pressure in the cavity. The apparatus can include control circuitry, in communication with the pressure source, configured to vary non-ambient pressure applied to the cavity to affect a targeted pressure relationship between an indication of a first physiological pressure level and a second physiological pressure level associated with the eye of the patient.

  • Patent number: 11730671
    Abstract: An apparatus to maintain an environment over an anterior surface of a patient eye can include an enclosure sized and shaped to be seated about the patient eye to form a cavity within the enclosure. The enclosure can be configured to contain a fluid other than ambient air in contact with the patient eye. The apparatus can include a fluid regulator in communication with the enclosure, where the fluid regulator can be configured to regulate the composition of the fluid contained within the enclosure.

  • Patent number: 10842376
    Abstract: An apparatus for at least one of diagnosing or treating an eye condition can include a goggle enclosure, sized and shaped to be seated on an eye socket of an eye to provide one or more cavities within the enclosure that extend about an entire exposed anterior portion of the eye, a pump, in fluidic communication with the one or more cavities to apply a fluid pressure to the one or more cavities, the pump configured to adjust a fluid pressure within the one or more cavities of the goggle enclosure, and a control circuit, including a data interface to receive data directly or indirectly indicating at least one of an intraorbital pressure, ICP, IOP, or a relationship between ICP and IOP, and based on processing the received data as a feedback control variable, controlling the pump to adjust the fluid pressure within the one or more cavities, the controlling including using further monitoring of the received data to control the pump.
