Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ophthalmic surgical instruments, in particular to a silicone oil remover. Background Art

[0002] Since Paul Cibis first successfully injected silicone oil into the eye as a vitreous substitute in 1962 to treat some patients with severe proliferative vitreoretinopathy who had no hope of being cured by conventional surgery, silicone oil has been widely used in the treatment of complex vitreous and retinal diseases, mainly for the treatment of complex ophthalmic diseases such as retinal detachment and macular epiretinal membrane. During surgery, in order to promote the reattachment of the retina, silicone oil is often injected into the eyeball. 3-6 months after surgery, when it is confirmed that the retina has been reattached or the silicone oil has emulsified, another surgery is performed to remove the silicone oil from the eye.

[0003] At present, there are two ways to remove silicone oil: machine removal and manual removal. Among them, machine removal of silicone oil mainly uses a vitrectomy and phacoemulsification machine to remove silicone oil. The startup cost is high, the tubes and instruments are complicated, the oil removal is relatively unstable and difficult to control, and in case of emergencies, it is impossible to stop the oil removal in time.

[0004] To manually remove silicone oil, a syringe and a vascular clamp are required. The surgeon uses the piston rod of the syringe to drive the piston in the syringe to move, so that negative pressure is formed in the syringe barrel. The assistant then holds the vascular clamp to clamp the piston rod to keep the position between the piston and the syringe fixed, so that a stable negative pressure is formed in the syringe, thereby sucking out the silicone oil.

[0005] However, the aspiration of the syringe and the fixation of the vascular clamp require the cooperation of at least two people, which places high demands on the coordination between the surgeon and the assistant. In addition, the assistant must always clamp the piston rod of the syringe during the silicone oil aspiration process, which is labor-intensive.

[0006] At the same time, during the manual suction of silicone oil, the piston rod needs to be manually adjusted according to the actual situation, resulting in unstable suction force, which can easily cause changes in intraocular pressure. Intraoperative unstable intraocular pressure is an important factor causing serious complications of vitrectomy, thereby increasing the risk of surgery. Utility Model Content
