Abstract: A direct visualization (DV) system and methods for measuring one or more anatomical features of the eye, including a depth of the iridocorneal angle of the eye. The DV system can include a wire extending distally from a handle with the wire having one or more indicators for measuring anatomical features of the eye. The DV system can be deployed into the eye and used with minimal trauma to ocular tissues. Furthermore, the DV system can be used independently or alongside other ocular instruments, such as instruments having indicators corresponding to the DV system for correctly implanting ocular implants without the use of a gonio lens.

Abstract: A delivery system is disclosed which can be used to deliver an ocular implant into a target location within the eye via an ab interno procedure. In some embodiments, the implant can provide fluid communication between the anterior chamber and the suprachoroidal or supraciliary space while in an implanted state. The delivery system can include a proximal handle component and a distal delivery component. In addition, the proximal handle component can include an actuator to control the release of the implant from the delivery component into the target location in the eye.

Abstract: Circuit arrangement for controlling an analog voltage signal comprising an input connection for applying the analog voltage signal (UE), a digitizer unit (10) which uses the analog voltage signal (UE) to produce a digital signal (UED) which has a predetermined duty ratio when the analog voltage signal (UE) is at a nominal value, a PI regulator (12) to which, as the input signal, a nominal signal (USD) and an actual signal which is correlated with the digital signal (UED) can be supplied and at whose output a control signal (UST) for controlling the analog voltage signal (UE) can be produced, in such a manner that the control signal (UST) allows the analog voltage signal to be increased if the duty ratio is less than the predetermined duty ratio, allows the analog voltage signal to remain unchanged if the duty ratio corresponds to the predetermined duty ratio, and allows the analog voltage signal to be reduced if the duty ratio is greater than the predetermined duty ratio.
