Abstract
A method and device which is used to insert an implant in order for treating an eye with glaucoma in order to lower the intraocular pressure of the eye. The implant (38) is an artificial meshwork. The implant (38) is attached to a guide knife (10) which is inserted into the anterior chamber (56) of the eye (50). The knife (10) is then removed leaving the implant (38) in place.
During the operation, a prismatic lens (74) with c-shaped vacuum ring (70) is used to help assist the surgeon in viewing the anterior chamber of the eye and containing the eye.
During the operation, a prismatic lens (74) with c-shaped vacuum ring (70) is used to help assist the surgeon in viewing the anterior chamber of the eye and containing the eye.
