摘要： Systems and methods for treating an ocular condition includes a heating chamber comprising a material expandable when heated and comprising a flow passage having an inlet and an outlet. A heating element is arranged and disposed to introduce heat in the heating chamber. A flexible diaphragm separates the heating chamber from the flow passage, and is moveable between a first position and a second position to change a volume of one of the pump chamber and flow passages in response to a temperature change in the heating chamber.

摘要： An IOP monitoring device for implantation in an eye of a patient may include a first tube having a first opening, the first tube being configured to extend into the anterior chamber. An intraocular pressure sensing (IOP) device for implantation in an eye of a patient may include a pressure sensor, a pressure sensor cap, and a tube coupled to a chamber inlet. The pressure sensor cap may include a recess having an inner surface, the recess configured to receive the pressure sensor such that a chamber is formed by the pressure sensor and the inner surface and a chamber inlet permitting a fluid to communicate with the chamber and be primed in a bubble-free manner. The tube may be coupled to the chamber inlet to allow fluid communication between an anterior chamber of the eye and the chamber.
