Abstract: Intraocular lens inserters and methods of use are disclosed. An example intraocular lens inserter may include an interior assembly having a movable member disposed therein. The movable member is movable in response to a pressure of a compressed gas. In response to the pressure of the compressed gas, the moveable member pressurizes a substantially incompressible fluid. The pressurized substantially incompressible fluid is used to advance a plunger. The plunger advances an intraocular lens through a lumen for insertion into an eye.

Abstract: A composite reactive material for use in a munition is disclosed. The composite reactive material comprises a metal lattice structure having interstitial spaces and a powder in the interstitial spaces. The powder comprises at least one metal powder and/or at least one halogen-containing polymer powder.

Abstract: Vitrectomy probes and system related thereto are disclosed herein. The disclosure describes various example vitrectomy probes having an adjustable cutting port size. Various example features are described for adjusting the size of the cutting port. Further, the disclosure provides examples for adjusting the size of the cutter port while the vitrectomy probe is in operation.

Abstract: Vitrectomy probes and system related thereto are disclosed herein. The disclosure describes vitrectomy probes having an adjustable cutting port size.

Abstract: A tablet support accessory is revealed that holds electronic tablets, iPads, notebooks, game players, e-readers, smart-phones, or other interactive electronic devices or viewing devices, on the thigh of a sitting, supine, or semi-supine person. Because interactivity at times involves the tapping on the face of the device, the tablet support accessory is stabilized by coupling a thigh brace and platform assembly, on which the device is held, to a support in the wearer's knee-shin region by means of an adjustable strap.

Abstract: A dry cleaning apparatus, assembly and method provides for a dry flexographic plate cleaner apparatus that is configured as a unitary subassembly to be used within a printing press assembly. The cleaner apparatus and subassembly comprise a plurality of motorized drives such that, among other things, a cleaning roller can be moved towards and away from the rotating printing plate so as to achieve optimum spacing. This also allows the press operator to make adjustments to the cleaner apparatus and subassembly without having to stop the printing press assembly. The apparatus and subassembly is further removable from the printing press assembly as may be desired or required for service. Additionally, the apparatus, assembly and method of the present invention also provides for use of at least one controller for electronically controlling the apparatus in accordance with the method and implementing optimized cleaning capabilities and functionalities.
