Application of intraocular pressure reduction and regulation system.

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

In some patients undergoing intraocular procedures, the intraocular pressure may remain dangerously high immediately before surgical penetration of the anterior chamber despite all available measures. A mechanical device, called an "Intraocular Pressure Reduction and Regulation System," has been devised as a means of reducing and regulating intraocular pressure immediately before and during intraocular procedures. The system has been used in selected glaucoma patients with satisfactory results.
