A vitreous body prosthesis device comprises a thin-walled inflatable balloon made of silicone rubber. The balloon is provided with means for stabilizing and fixing the balloon within an eye to be treated. The balloon is provided with an inflow tube made of silicone rubber, the inflow tube being in fluid-tight communication with the interior of the balloon. The inflow tube leads to a bulb through which fluid can be introduced into, and removed from, the tube, whereby the degree of inflation of the balloon can be controlled, thereby gently forcing the thin-walled balloon against the retinal surface of the eye. A stabilizing tube may be provided, in which case it is in fluid communication with aqueous humor in the eye, and in fluid-tight communication with a silicone rubber drainage tube of an aqueous humor drainage device, which functions both as an anchoring object for the tubes and as a means of controlling eye pressure. |
