  • Publication number: 20230346598
    Abstract: An intraocular shunt can be placed into the eye in an ab externo approach. A clinician may determine an entry area below a corneal limbus of an eye and a target outflow region. Thereafter, the clinician can insert a hollow shaft into the eye at the entry area toward an anterior chamber of the eye, the shaft carrying an intraocular shunt therein. The clinician can position an inflow end of the shunt within the anterior chamber of the eye and, while maintaining the shunt inflow end in the anterior chamber, can remove the shaft from the eye to release the shunt. Finally, the clinician can repositioning an outflow end of the shunt within the target outflow region and verify placement of the outflow end of the shunt within the target outflow region.

  • Publication number: 20200182757
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides devices and methods for processing and harvesting adipose tissue. The present disclosure provides improved devices, systems, and methods for harvesting, processing, and filtering adipose tissue for autologous fat transfer procedures. The features of the devices and systems of the present disclosure increase efficiency and sterility of adipose tissue processing by reducing the need for users to interrupt the procedure to adjust some part of the system, such as unclogging filter pores or adjusting tubing.

  • Patent number: 9055885
    Abstract: Disclosed is an exemplary surgical illumination system that includes a first laser configured to emit a first light beam having a first spectral range, and an illumination probe optically connectable to the first laser. The first laser may be configured as a supercontinuum laser. The surgical illumination system may include a second laser configured to emit a second light beam having a second spectral range, and a beam combiner for combing the first and second laser beams to form a third laser beam having a spectral range of the first and second lasers. The illumination probe includes a fiber optic cable for delivering at least a portion of the first light beam to a surgical site. The fiber optic cable includes a fiber optic core having a diameter of 100 microns or less.

  • Publication number: 20080004608
    Abstract: A multifunction surgical probe is disclosed, one embodiment comprising: a handpiece, operable to receive a light beam from a laser; and a firing switch operable to provide a firing control signal to cause the laser to fire and emit the light beam. The surgical prove can further comprise an interface communicatively coupled to the firing switch and operable to communicate the firing control signal to the laser. The laser can be operably coupled to a surgical console operable to control the laser, and the interface can be communicatively coupled to the firing switch and operable to communicatively couple the surgical probe to the surgical console and to communicate the firing control signal to the surgical console. The surgical console can be operable to control the laser based on the firing control signal.
