TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to corneal contact lens technical field, specifically a soft corneal contact lens with mark. BACKGROUND
[0002] Modern minimally invasive vitreous surgery refers to the case without cutting the ball conjunctiva, using special sleeve needle in the ciliary body flat through the ball conjunctiva and sclera direct puncture into the vitreous cavity to establish three channels, all surgical instruments are through micro sleeve into the vitreous cavity and carry out surgical operation. The operation has the advantages of small trauma, incision suture, postoperative inflammation reaction light and short operation time. It has been carried out in ophthalmology, and the indications cover almost all vitreous and retinal diseases and part of lens diseases that need surgical treatment in ophthalmology.
[0003] The wide application of non-contact wide-angle lens in modern minimally invasive vitreous surgery significantly improves the efficiency and postoperative effect of vitreous surgery. However, compared with contact wide-angle lens, it still has the following shortcomings: 1. The cornea is exposed to air, which is easy to dry and affect the clarity of the surgical field; 2. The assistant needs to constantly flush the corneal surface with balanced salt solution (BSS) during the operation, with an average flushing interval of 30-60 seconds to maintain the clarity of the surgical field. However, the operation is often limited by the proficiency of the assistant and the complexity of the operation, resulting in uneven liquid coating or droplets splashing on the wide-angle lens surface, thereby affecting the clarity of the surgical field; 3. With the extension of the operation time, the corneal epithelium edema is aggravated, which makes the operator lose the clear surgical field, and then the corneal epithelium has to be scraped off, causing temporary or continuous damage to the ocular surface, which has a significant impact on the recovery of postoperative visual acuity and the improvement of comfort.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the applicant applied for a patent with patent number CN217886361U, which specifically discloses a corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) comprising: a corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body; a silicon hydrogel layer arranged at the edge of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body along the circumference of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body to increase the thickness at the edge, thereby preventing the edge of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) from curling during surgery and affecting the clarity of the surgical field. When the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) provided by the present solution is applied in vitreous surgery, the clarity of the surgical field can be maintained for a longer period of time. If the clarity of the field of view decreases, only a small amount of balanced salt solution needs to be used to flush the surface of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) to continue to maintain a clear surgical field. In addition, when the sclera is pressed and the eyeball is rotated, the image in the surgical field does not deform significantly. By arranging a silicon hydrogel layer at the edge of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body, the edge curling of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body can be effectively prevented, thereby ensuring the clarity of the doctor's field of view and improving the protection effect of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) body on the cornea.
[0005] However, the applicant found in clinical application that some doctors easily confused the front and back of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) after obtaining the cut corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens), and if the back of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) is attached to the patient's eye, it will cause damage to the patient's eye. In addition, after the cornea is attached to the back, the edge of the corneal bandage lens (corneal contact lens) is easily curled during surgery. SUMMARY
