20090216217 | METHOD AND SYSTEMS FOR LASER TREATMENT OF PRESBYOPIA USING OFFSET IMAGING - An ophthalmic surgery system and method for treating presbyopia by performing ablative photodecomposition of the corneal surface. The offset image of a variable aperture, such as a variable width slit and variable diameter iris diaphragm, is scanned in a preselected pattern to perform ablative sculpting of predetermined portions of a corneal surface. The scanning is performed to ablate an optical zone sized to match the patient pupil with a peripheral transition zone outside the pupil. The shape of the ablated optical zone is different from the shape of the final optical correction on the anterior surface of the cornea. The optical zone corrects for near-vision centrally and far-vision peripherally. A movable image displacement mechanism enables radial displacement and angular rotation of the profiled beam exiting from the variable aperture. The invention enables wide area treatment with a laser having a narrower beam than the treatment area, and can be used in the treatment of many conditions in conjunction with presbyopia such as hyperopia, hyperopic astigmatism and irregular refractive aberrations. | 08-27-2009 |

20100137818 | MULTI-PIECE PUNCTAL PLUG - A multi-piece punctal plug has one or more superficial plugs connected to an anchor plug deeper in the naso-lacrimal canaliculus. The anchor is fixed to the wall of the lacrimal duct while the superficial plugs are axially and detachably secured to the anchor plug so that the multi-plug complex may be inserted or removed together as one, or the superficial plugs may be detached separately and replaced securely without disturbing the anchor. Removal and insertion is accomplished by a specific tool having an end for engaging the plugs. | 06-03-2010 |
20120253299 | Multi-Piece Punctal Plug - A multi-piece punctal plug has one a superficial plug removably connected to an anchor plug deeper in the naso-lacrimal canaliculus. The anchor is fixed to the wall of the lacrimal duct while the superficial plug is axially and detachably secured to the anchor plug so that the multi-plug complex may be inserted or removed together as one, or the superficial plug may be detached separately and replaced securely without disturbing the anchor. Removal and insertion is accomplished by a specific tool having an end for reversibly engaging the plugs. | 10-04-2012 |

20100040670 | DRUG DELIVERY VIA OCULAR IMPLANT - A method and apparatus for administering an active agent such as a medicine to a subject, uses an ocular implant such as a punctal plug, to which the active agent has been applied. The implant is installed at the eye of the subject for administering the active agent via tissues of the eye. | 02-18-2010 |
20120277694 | PUNCTAL PLUG WITH ACTIVE AGENT - A punctal plug for insertion through a punctal aperture of an eye. The punctal plug includes a stem configured to be inserted into the punctal aperture and along a canaliculus of the eye, a stopper connected to one end of the stem, the stopper configured to seat against the punctal aperture, and a topical prostaglandin. The stem and the stopper are made from a porous or absorbent material, and wherein the material is saturated with the topical prostaglandin. | 11-01-2012 |
