    摘要: Multi-dose preservative-free ocular fluid delivery devices are provided. The fluid delivery device includes a fluid dispensing system and a fluid package for storing a liquid therein and supplying said liquid to the dispensing system. The dispensing system comprises an elongated chamber which includes a check valve which defines a frontal closure to the chamber. The valve is normally closed and hermetically seals the chamber. The dispenser includes a vibration motor that induces oscillations to the chamber and to the fluid within. The oscillations of the chamber impart momentum to the fluid stored in the chamber which in turn imparts force that cyclically opens the valve to dispense streams or liquid droplets. Fluid is dispensed only when the motor oscillates while otherwise the valve is hermetically closed.

    摘要: A preservative-free, sterile packaged ophthalmic device product is disclosed. The preservative-free, sterile packaged ophthalmic device product is obtained by (a) adding at least one polyquaternium polymer to an aqueous packaging solution for preventing antimicrobial contamination during storage; (b) packaging the aqueous packaging solution and an ophthalmic device in a manner preventing contamination of the ophthalmic device by one or more microorganisms; and (c) heat sterilizing the aqueous packaging solution and the ophthalmic device, whereby the at least one polyquaternium polymer decomposes during the heat sterilizing to obtain the preservative-free packaged ophthalmic device product.

    摘要: A contact lens package includes a base including an upper surface and a receptacle having a volume. The contact lens package also includes a flexible cover including an interior surface that is coupled to the upper surface of the base. A stiff dome is attached to an interior surface of the cover and the stiff dome displaces an amount of volume from the volume of the receptacle. The contact lens package may also include a lens having an anterior surface and a posterior surface disposed in the receptacle with the posterior surface of the lens disposed adjacent to the stiff dome. By peeling the flexible cover away from the base, the lens remains mounted on the stiff dome causing the anterior surface of the lens to be presented to a user.

    摘要: A phacoemulsification handpiece is provided for ophthalmic surgery. The phacoemulsification handpiece includes a housing having a cavity positioned at a distal end of the housing. The phacoemulsification handpiece further includes a horn positioned within the cavity. An irrigation line is coupled to the housing and is exterior to the housing. A port is coupled between the irrigation line and the cavity and the port is configured to direct fluid into the cavity to a side of the horn (e.g., without directly impinging on the horn, etc.).

    摘要: A packaging system for the storage of an ophthalmic device is disclosed. The packaging system includes a sealed container containing one or more unused ophthalmic devices immersed in an aqueous packaging solution that includes ectoine or an ophthalmologically acceptable ectoine derivative. The aqueous packaging solution has an osmolality of at least about 150 mOsm/kg, a pH of about 6 to about 9 and is sterilized.
