NON-INVASIVE DEVICES AND METHODS FOR LOWERING INTRA-OCULAR PRESSURE |
摘要 |
Improvements in devices, systems and methods for non-invasively lowering intra-ocular pressure (IOP). In examples, the device applies non-invasive, focal, mechanical oscillation to the limbal region at a low amplitude and frequency, targeting the trabecular meshwork to restore outflow function and lower IOP. |

1. A method of treating an eye, the method comprising:
applying focal sonic oscillation to a plurality of locations on an ocular surface of the eye using a device having a treatment head, wherein each of the plurality of locations is on a limbal region of the eye, the limbal region being spaced apart from a cornea of the eye, and wherein the focal sonic oscillation applied to each of the plurality of locations includes an oscillation frequency and a duration. |
