Abstract: An apparatus has central lens body for providing vision correction for a patient. The lens body has a central aperture and is configured as one of: a diffractive lens or a refractive lens.

Abstract: An apparatus (200, 200A, 200B, 200C) has central lens body (212, 212A, 212B, 212C) for providing vision correction for a patient. The lens body (212, 212A, 212B, 212C) has an initial index of refraction and is formed from at least one material configured to have a second index of refraction when subjected to a laser and/or radiation.

Abstract: An intraocular lens has central lens body at least one haptic extending from the central lens body. The haptic has a lobular configuration. The lens body and the haptic having a folded configuration for implantation within the eye. The lens having a first deployed configuration wherein the lens body is positioned at a location substantially behind sealed anterior and posterior portions of the lens capsule with the at least one haptic positioned at a location substantially over top of the sealed anterior and posterior portions of the lens capsule. The lens having a second deployed configuration wherein the lens body is positioned at a location substantially in front of the sealed anterior and posterior portions of the lens capsule with the at least one haptic positioned at a location substantially over behind the sealed anterior and posterior portions of the lens capsule.

Abstract: A dressing and method for treating high-tension wounds. First and second layers of a 2-octyl cyanoacrylate 16 adhesive are applied to a short, high-tension wound, with the first and second layers covering the wound and extending to at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) from each side of the wound. The first layer is allowed to set and polymerize before the second layer of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate is applied. The second layer extends at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) beyond each edge of the first layer. In the case of a long, high-tension wound, a third layer is applied after the first and second layers are allowed to set and polymerize. The third layer is at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) wide and is substantially perpendicular to the first and second layers. The third layer may occur intermittently every 2.5 cm (0.984 in.) over the length of the wound, and preferably extends at least about 5 mm (0.197 in.) beyond the edge of the first layer.

Abstract: A dressing and method for treating high-tension wounds. First and second layers of a 1-butyl cyanoacrylate 16 adhesive are applied to a short, high-tension wound, with the first and second layers covering the wound and extending to at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) from each side of the wound. The first layer is allowed to set and polymerize before the second layer of 1-butyl cyanoacrylate is applied. The second layer extends at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) beyond each edge of the first layer. In the case of a long, high-tension wound, a third layer is applied after the first and second layers are allowed to set and polymerize. The third layer is at least about 2.5 mm (0.0984 in.) wide and is substantially perpendicular to the first and second layers. The third layer may occur intermittently every 2.5 cm (0.984 in.) over the length of the wound, and preferably extends at least about 5 mm (0.197 in.) beyond the edge of the first layer.

Abstract: A dressing for a wound site and method of using same. The dressing includes a first layer comprising a butyl-cyanoacrylate adhesive applied directly to the wound site and extending a distance beyond the wound site to form a peripheral edge. The dressing also includes a second layer comprising a butyl-cyanoacrylate adhesive applied directly to the first layer and overlapping the peripheral edge of the first layer a distance. In a moderate-tension wound the second layer extends the entire area of the first layer, but also extends a distance beyond the peripheral edge.
