[0024] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0025] The positioning ring is placed on the cornea when the present application is used, which facilitates the making of incisions on the cornea by surgical instruments, and the positioning ring can indicate the angle and length of the incision while being placed and slid.

[0026] In order to better understand the above technical solutions, the exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present application can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present application can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0027] In order to better understand the above technical solutions, the exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present application can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present application can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0028] Figures 1 to 5 For a corneal surgery positioning device according to an embodiment of the present application, comprising:

[0029] Positioning ring 1: large at the top and small at the bottom, the inner wall of the positioning ring 1 forms a plurality of protruding angle indicating elements 2, and the bottom ring mouth of the positioning ring 1 is protruded downward to form a plurality of anti-skid protrusions 11; in use, the positioning ring 1 is placed at the corneal position, the bottom ring mouth is tightly attached to the corneal position, the entire corneal area can be seen from the top, and the surgical instrument can be inserted to contact the cornea to perform surgery;

[0030] The positioning ring 1 in the form of a circular truncated cone can also facilitate the leaning of the surgical instrument. Since the cornea is part of the eyeball and the incision is perpendicular to the corneal surface, the surgical instrument has a certain angle with the vertical line when cutting at the edge of the cornea. Therefore, the positioning ring 1 in the form of a circular truncated cone can assist in stabilizing the surgical equipment, keeping the angle relatively stable, and ensuring the regularity of the incision.

[0031] Since the present application is used under the conditions of a microscope and illumination, in order to reduce the internal reflection affecting the judgment of the surgeon, the inside of the positioning ring 1 needs to be treated to resist reflection. The following solutions can be adopted: 1. When using medical stainless steel, the surface is treated by mechanical methods such as wire drawing to reduce the formation of light spots; 2. Or use titanium alloy as the material, the surface of the titanium alloy can be treated to have a dull and non-reflective effect. This surface effect can be referred to some outdoor titanium alloy products.

[0032] The height of the positioning ring 1 is preferably between 5-7.5mm, which can be well matched with existing surgical equipment.

[0033] The anti-skid protrusions 11 of the bottom ring mouth of the positioning ring 1 are used to prevent displacement during surgical operation. The corneal surface is smooth and has a certain elasticity. How to better prevent slipping while reducing scratches on the cornea, an embodiment of the present application is to set the anti-skid protrusions 11 to be ellipsoidal, and the major axis of the ellipsoid is arranged in the tangent direction of the bottom ring mouth of the positioning ring 1. With this structure, it can be rotated in a small range during use, but it will not move.

[0034] Angle indicating element 2: composed of a cylinder and a spherical top, the cylinder gradually sinks into the positioning ring 1 from top to bottom; the exposed size of adjacent angle indicating elements 2 in the positioning ring 1 is different; in some embodiments, the interval angle between adjacent angle indicating elements 2 is 15° or 30°, with this scheme, the difficulty in identification caused by too dense scale can be reduced, and the scale can be marked as follows: taking the horizontal line as 0°, increasing the degree in the vertical direction, wherein the 15° scale is short, and one dot is used as the identification, the 30° scale is long, and two dots are used as the identification, and when reaching the 45°, the scale is as long as the 15°, but three dots are used as the identification, 60° is set according to the 30°, four dots are used as the identification, and so on, until 90°, thus the balance between the manufacturing cost and the convenience in use can be achieved. The above-mentioned dot is the spherical top of the cylinder mentioned above.

[0035] Handle 3: provided on one side of the positioning ring 1, used for holding in use. The existing handle 3 is mostly a round rod same as the ordinary surgical instrument, in use, due to the centralized mass of the whole positioning ring 1, the round rod is easy to rotate and slip when holding, and only relying on the common anti-skid measures such as knurling, concentric circle and the like structure cannot achieve good stability effect, and in order to set the knurling and the like, the handle 3 needs to be further thickened, increasing the overall structure mass.

[0036] In view of this, one scheme of the utility model is to set the handle 3 as an oval section, the long axis of the oval is the width direction, and the short axis is the height direction, with this scheme, better holding feeling can be provided without increasing the overall mass of the handle 3, and the oval section naturally has the anti-skid ability.

[0037] In some embodiments, the handle 3 surface forms an anti-skid structure 31, the anti-skid structure 31 is a notch formed by a plurality of recesses, with this anti-skid structure 31, compared with the existing structure such as knurling, the holding way of the utility model is optimized and adjusted specially, so that the instrument can not slide along the plane in the operation, avoiding the operation accidents caused by the movement of the instrument.

[0038] The above-mentioned handle 3 can also be provided with a certain inclination angle relative to the horizontal plane, and the inclination angle is preferably 120°.
