1161 results about "Cornea" patented technology

The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber. The cornea, with the anterior chamber and lens, refracts light, with the cornea accounting for approximately two-thirds of the eye's total optical power. In humans, the refractive power of the cornea is approximately 43 dioptres. The cornea can be reshaped by surgical procedures such as LASIK.

Stabilization of collagen scaffolds

ActiveUS12350144B2Laser surgeryEye implantsCollagen scaffoldAnatomy
Shape-stabilized collagen scaffolds and methods of obtaining such scaffolds are disclosed. Stroma can be harvested, for example, from human or porcine corneal stroma and shaped during excision or in a separate step after excision. Following shaping (and preferably decellularization), the excised stroma portion is subject to pressure, force or vacuum to reduce fluid content and then irradiated or otherwise treated to induce crosslinking of collagen chains or fibrils. In one embodiment, the scaffold can be compacted by removing some or all of the water from the scaffold, and rehydrating the scaffold in a controlled manner (e.g., in a mold or other confining space) such that the scaffold takes a desired compacted shape; and then crosslinking at least a portion of the scaffold to mechanically strengthen it and inhibit subsequent swelling. Various sources of energy can be employed to induce crosslinking of collagen including, for example, ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The scaffolds can also be selectively densified or patterned. The invention is particularly useful in forming stable lenticules of enhanced stiffness and sufficient optical clarity for intracorneal implantation in additive ocular surgery.
