Problems solved by technology
The volume injected is typically not controlled in an accurate manner because reading the vernier is subject to parallax error.
Fluid flow rates are uncontrolled and tissue damage may occur due to an “unsteady” injection.

Abstract
An injection assembly includes a dispensing chamber housing, a temperature control device, a thermal sensor, a switch, and a controller. The dispensing chamber housing has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface partially defines a dispensing chamber for receiving a quantity of a substance. The temperature control device at least partially surrounds the dispensing chamber housing and alters a temperature of a substance in the dispensing chamber. The thermal sensor is located near the temperature control device and reads a temperature near the temperature control device. The switch is coupled to the temperature control device. The controller controls the temperature control device and the switch such that a first voltage is applied to the temperature control device until the temperature control device reaches a desired temperature, and a second voltage is applied to the temperature control device thereafter to maintain the temperature control device at the desired temperature.
Description
RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 581,629 filed Oct. 16, 2006, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 581,630 filed Oct. 16, 2006, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 581,591 filed Oct. 16, 2006, and is related to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11 / 435,906 filed May 17, 2006.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a single-use medical device and more particularly to a two-piece ophthalmic injection device with a disposable tip end containing a temperature control device and temperature sensor assembly.[0003]Several diseases and conditions of the posterior segment of the eye threaten vision. Age related macular degeneration (ARMD), choroidal neovascularization (CNV), retinopathies (e.g., diabetic retinopathy, vitreoretinopathy), retinitis (e.g., cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis), uveitis, macular edema, glaucoma, and neuropathies are several examples.[0004]These, and other diseases, can b...
