20090216225 | THERMAL CAPSULOTOMY TOOL AND SYSTEM - A system and tool for performing a capsulotomy procedure. The system includes an air pressure unit, a capsulotomy and movement control unit providing electrical current and movement control, and a capsulotomy tool, and an extendable-retractable burning element coupled to the tool. A capsulotomy and movement control unit provides electrical current to the burning element and movement control for extending and retracting the burning element. When the burning element is in a flattened, retracted configuration, the tip of the tool can be inserted through a relatively small corneal incision. Then, the burning element is opened to a circular, extended configuration, allowing a capsulotomy by applying an electrical pulse to the burning element. Optionally, predefined points of weakness allow removal of the tool should breakage occur during surgery. | 08-27-2009 |
20100057069 | THERMAL BURNING RING TOOL AND SYSTEM - A thermal burning tool for performing a surgical procedure. The tool comprises a probe having an elongated body adapted to provide electrical power to a burning ring formed at a distal end thereof, with the burning ring being formed at an oblique angle from the tool probe. This enables formation of a burn having a diameter larger than the diameter of the hollow body, as measured along the largest axis of the burn. An input connector mounted on a proximal end of the probe connects the probe with an electrical power source, with the input connector having at least one resistor in an electrical circuit for controlling the electrical power provided to the burning ring. Upon application of electrical current to the tool, heat is concentrated at the distal end of the probe. In a preferred embodiment, the tool additionally provides pressurized airflow, eliminating the need for a separate airflow tool. | 03-04-2010 |
