  • Patent number: 11951040
    Abstract: An ophthalmic device including a cannula having a cannula distal end, a lumen, and one or more orifices coupled to the lumen is provided. The cannula is configured to deliver a fluid. A sleeve is disposed around the cannula and has a sleeve distal end. A handle is coupled to the sleeve and the cannula, the handle having an actuator. An internal mechanism is coupled to the actuator and is configured to pump the fluid. The internal mechanism includes an inlet port disposed on a handle proximal end, a drive member coupled to the actuator and a plunger coupled to the drive member. The ophthalmic device is configured to retain a volume of fluid and to be prevented from being re-primed after a predetermined number of actuator presses, wherein the retained volume of fluid is dispensed over an additional number of actuator pushes.

  • Patent number: 11844934
    Abstract: Devices and methods for intraocular fluid injection are disclosed. A device can include a surgical instrument for an ophthalmic procedure. The surgical instrument can include a handle. A fluid compartment can be coupled to the handle and configured to hold a substance. A tool can be coupled to the distal end of the handle and have a lumen configured to convey the substance into an intraocular site of a patient. A piston can be in the handle and configured to reciprocate along the longitudinal axis of the handle to draw the substance from the fluid compartment and eject the substance through the lumen of the tool. A push button can be on the lateral side of the housing and configured to engage the piston via a sloped surface to actuate a forward stroke of the piston towards the distal end of the handle.
