20130331937 | INTRAOCULAR IMPLANT AND METHOD FOR FIXING SAME INTO AN EYE - An intraocular implant for use in a surgical procedure such as a cataract operation, or in a refractive-lens exchange surgery procedure, has a main portion and a peripheral portion peripheral to the main portion. The main portion is plate-like in shape and may be a lens or a plug for closing an aperture in the capsule of the eye. The implant has two or more lugs extending from the peripheral portion in a direction substantially perpendicular to a plane of the main portion. The lugs extend either from haptics, which protrude from the main portion, or from a short extension of the edge of the main portion. A method for fixing the implant into the eye involves making two or more voids in the capsule wall, offering up the implant to the capsule, so that the lugs lie adjacent to the voids, and inserting the lugs into the voids. | 12-12-2013 |
20130331938 | INTRAOCULAR IMPLANT - An intraocular implant for placement in the eye, e.g. as part of a cataract operation or crystalline lens extraction refractive operation, has at a peripheral portion of the implant a groove which engages with the lip of a single capsulotomy only formed in the lens capsule of the eye. The implant will normally be a lens, but may instead be a bung or plug for occluding an opening made in the capsule. The groove may be a continuous groove around the periphery of the implant, or there may be a series of individual spaced-apart grooves formed as projections protruding from the periphery. Instead of a single groove, a pair of axially spaced-apart grooves may be provided, which engage with respective capsulotomies formed in an anterior and a posterior part of the capsule. The posterior groove is preferably of a smaller mean diameter than the anterior groove | 12-12-2013 |

20120070852 | ASSAY - The present invention relates to an assay for transferases. The assay comprises a first moiety comprising a transferase substrate and a second moiety capable of binding to the transferase substrate after it has been acted on by the transferase. One of the first and second moieties comprises a fluorophore and the other of the first and second moieties causes a change in fluorescence of the fluorophore. Thus, when the second moiety binds the transferase substrate after it has been acted on by the transferase, a change in fluorescence can be detected. The assay allows for agents that modulate the activity of the transferase to be screened. | 03-22-2012 |
