AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing cataract surgeries face issues such as large incisions, long operation times, slow recovery, and potential damage to ocular tissues due to ultrasound or laser use, with high costs and limited applicability.

Method used

A cataract surgery instrument with a deformable member and mesh bag that can enter through a small incision, mechanically cutting the lens nucleus without ultrasound or lasers, using a radial cutting method to minimize tissue damage and surgical incisions.

Benefits of technology

The instrument allows for efficient, quick, and cost-effective cataract surgery with minimal tissue damage, faster recovery, and universal applicability, avoiding the drawbacks of ultrasound and laser-based methods.

Abstract

A cataract surgery instrument belonging to the technical field of medical surgical instruments, the cataract surgery instrument includes a direction guide tube (3), a deformation member (2), and a mesh bag (1), the end of the direction guide tube (3) has a notch (31) that communicates with its inner cavity (35), the deformation member (2) has a deformation portion (21) and a connecting portion (22) connected to the deformation portion (21), the connecting portion (22) is drilled into the inner cavity (35) and is movable along the axial direction of the direction guide tube (3), the mesh bag (1) is connected to the deformation portion (21), and the connecting portion (22) moves the deformation portion (21) and the mesh bag (1) along the axial direction of the direction guide tube (3), causing the deformation portion (21) and the mesh bag (1) to contract into the inner cavity (35) or expand out of the inner cavity (35). Cataract surgery instruments use a mechanical radial cutting method on the lens, which causes no thermal damage to intraocular tissues and is less likely to damage the posterior capsule, ligaments, and corneal endothelium. It shortens the operation time, is highly efficient, requires a small surgical incision, minimizes patient discomfort, allows for quick recovery, is easy to operate and learn, is inexpensive, and avoids the various adverse effects of ultrasonic vibration.
