    摘要: Apparatus and methods for preventing prolapse of iris tissue through a surgical opening in the eye during an ophthalmic surgery. A flexible biocompatible polymeric shield is inserted into the anterior chamber of the eye, placed in position overlying the iris adjacent a surgical opening into the anterior chamber and is thus between the iris tissue and the surgical opening. As pressure inside the anterior chamber increases during the surgery, anterior movement of the iris toward any surgical opening in response to such pressure, also moves the shield anteriorly, such that the shield remains between the iris and the surgical opening. Thus, the shield blocks the surgical opening and prevents movement of eye material to and through the surgical opening. The surgical opening can still be accessed by surgical tools and materials from outside the eye by inserting such articles through the surgical opening and pushing such articles past the shield.

    摘要: An eye shield for releasable mounting to a face of a patient, used to inhibit direct pressure being applied to an eye or eyes of the patient during a medical procedure. The eye shield includes a resiliently deformable base having at least one aperture extending therethrough that corresponds to the position of an eye or eyes of the patient, and a curved, flexible, transparent cover plate attached to an upper surface of the base and extending over the at least one aperture. The cover plate includes first and second eye cover portions joined by an integral hinge member therebetween. The eye shield is attached to the face around the orbital rims of the respective eyes and the first and second eye cover portions are configured to pivot relative to each other around the hinge member and flex along their respective spans to generally conform to the shape of the face.
