Abstract

The invention relates to an epithelial trepan for corneal cross-linking operations. The epithelial trepan is characterized in that the epithelial trepan is of a hollow structure with a ring wall in anunparted hyperboloid shape, and the outer sides of edge landing areas at the upper edge and the lower edge of the epithelial trepan form blade shapes. The epithelial trepan is suitable for corneal cross-linking operation, improves the action time stability and efficiency of riboflavin on corneal tissues during operation, and improves uniformity of absorption of liquid medicine by corneas. Consumption of a liquid medicine in the operation is reduced, the curative effect of the operation is improved, and the epithelial trepan is simple and safe to use. The epithelial trepan has the advantages of simple design and convenient manufacture.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedical engineering, and in particular relates to an epithelial trephine used for corneal cross-linking surgery. Background technique [0002] Corneal collagen cross-linking technology is a new treatment for keratoconus and corneal ectasia after laser keratorefractive surgery, which has emerged in recent years. The main principle is to use the photosensitizer riboflavin to form reactive oxygen species under the activation of ultraviolet light A wave (wavelength 370nm), and then induce the chemical cross-linking reaction between the amino groups of collagen fibers to increase the mechanical strength of the corneal stroma. [0003] Ensuring the level of riboflavin in the basal layer is one of the elements for successful cross-linking, which requires full contact and soaking of riboflavin with the cornea. The traditional method achieves the purpose of local infiltration of riboflavin in the cornea through frequenc...
