A prosthesis is described which includes an elongated strip of flexible material bearing intermediate its length a pressure pad, the strip ranging in length from about 50 to about 75 mm. The strip is passed behind the globe of the eye so that the pressure pad rests against the eye wall at a location obverse to the macula. The ends of the strip are attached, as by sutures, to the sclera, causing the pressure pad to press anterioriy upon the eye wall and to move the macula forwardly. Various pressure pads, including adjustable pads, such as pads that are inflatable, are disclosed. |
