Description

  The present invention relates to a contact lens for ophthalmic surgery used in ophthalmic surgery such as retinal vitreous surgery.

  In retinal vitreous surgery, as shown in FIG. 8, a desired ophthalmic surgical contact lens 100 is held on the eyeball of a patient who is laid on his back, and the fundus image of the eyeball is observed through a surgical microscope. We are taking action. The procedure for holding the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 100 on the eyeball is performed as follows.

  First, the sclera 101 around the cornea (not shown) of the eyeball is exposed. Next, the metal fixing ring 102 is sewn to the sclera 101 with the surgical thread 103 around the cornea. Next, around the fixing ring 102 in the sclera 101, a light guide 104 for intraocular illumination, a vitreous cutter 105 for excising the vitreous body, an infusion tube 106 for injecting intraocular perfusate, and the like A wound port 107 is provided for inserting the surgical instrument in the eyeball. Thereafter, the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 100 is mounted and held on the fixing ring 102.

  However, the sewing of the fixing ring 102 to the sclera 101 as described above is an operation that sews the half layer of the sclera 101 so that it requires skill, even for a skilled operator. This is a work that requires attention and effort.

  In order to eliminate such difficult work, contact lenses for ophthalmic surgery that do not use the fixing ring 102 have been recently developed. For example, in the contact lens 110 for ophthalmic surgery shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, a fixing flange 112 is provided around the lens unit 111, and the lens unit 111 is held on the cornea 114 of the eyeball 113 by the flange 112. (Patent Documents 1, 2, and 3).

  Reference numeral 115 in FIGS. 10 and 11 denotes an opening 115 formed in the flange 112, and a wound opening for inserting a surgical instrument in a position corresponding to the opening 115 in the sclera 116 of the eyeball 113. Can be formed.

  However, in the conventional ophthalmic surgical contact lens 110 shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the eyeball 113 is not sufficiently held on the cornea 114, and when the eyeball 113 is tilted, etc. In some cases, the surgery may have shifted and the operation must be interrupted.

  Further, when a surgical instrument is inserted into the wound formed in the sclera 116 corresponding to the opening 115 of the flange 112, particularly when the lens unit 111 and the flange 112 are integrated, the ophthalmic surgery is performed. Even when the contact lens 110 is rotated, the surgical instrument and the flange 112 may interfere with each other and rotation of the contact lens 110 may be restricted. In this case, the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 110 cannot be rotated to sufficiently observe the inside of the eyeball 113.

[A] First embodiment (FIGS. 1 and 2)
FIG. 1 is a front view showing a first embodiment of a contact lens for ophthalmic surgery according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a side sectional view showing a state in which the ophthalmic surgical contact lens of FIG. 1 is attached to the eyeball. The ophthalmic surgical contact lens 10 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is used for ophthalmic surgery such as retinal vitreous surgery, and includes an optical unit 11 and a support unit 12.

  The optical unit 11 is for observing the inside of the eyeball 1 and is made of any one material of rubbers such as glass and silicone, and synthetic resins such as hard acrylic and soft acrylic. As shown in FIG. 12, the surface 11A of the optical part 11 has a flat surface 11AA, a convex surface 11AB, a concave surface 11AC, a flat surface 11AD having a prism, a convex surface 11AE having a prism, or a concave surface 11AF having a prism. Configured. Further, the back surface 11 </ b> B of the optical unit 11 is formed in a curved surface corresponding (adapted) to the shape of the cornea 2 of the eyeball 1.

  Accordingly, during ophthalmic surgery, the back surface 11B of the optical unit 11 is brought into contact with the cornea 2 of the patient's eyeball 1 so that the front surface 11A of the optical unit 11 faces the surgical microscope. Actually, a viscoelastic material is filled between the back surface 11B of the optical unit 11 and the cornea 2 of the patient, and the error between the two is eliminated.

  The support portion 12 supports and holds the optical portion 11 on the cornea 2 of the eyeball 1 and includes a support ring 13, a first branch portion 14, and a second branch portion 15. In particular, the back surface 16 of the first branch portion 14 and the second branch portion 15 is formed in a curved surface corresponding to (adapting to) the shape of the sclera 3 around the cornea 2 of the eyeball 1. The support 12 is made of any one material such as metal, rubber such as silicone, or synthetic resin such as soft acrylic or hard acrylic.

  The support ring 13 is for detachably fitting the optical unit 11, and is provided when the support unit 12 is configured separately from the optical unit 11, that is, separated. A pair of first branch portions 14 are disposed at positions facing the support ring 13. In other words, each first branch portion 14 is configured such that the base end 14B is joined to the support ring 13 and extends linearly or curvedly (in the present embodiment, linearly) outward in the diameter direction of the optical portion 11. The Then, the first branch portions 14 are continuously connected to the distal ends 14A of the first branch portions 14 and second from both sides of the distal end portions 14A in the direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the first branch portions 14 and in the direction along the circumferential direction of the optical portion 11. The branch part 15 extends. These four second branch portions 15 are formed in a perfect circular shape as a whole. Due to the presence of the second branch portion 15, the area where the support portion 12 contacts the sclera 3 of the eyeball 1 becomes wide.

  The overall shape of the four second branch portions 15 described above may be an elliptical shape, an oval shape, a rhombus shape, or a polygonal shape. Moreover, the 1st branch part 14 may be extended from the support ring 13 in the range of 1-10. In addition, one or three or more second branch portions 15 may extend from the tip 14A of the first branch portion 14. Further, the support unit 12 may be configured integrally with the optical unit 11. In this case, the support ring 13 does not exist, and the base end 14 </ b> B of the first branch portion 14 is directly joined to the optical unit 11.

  Now, the tip 15A of each second branch 15 extending from both sides of the tip 14A of the pair of first branches 14 is as follows. That is, the distal ends 15A of the second branch portions 15 are not in contact with each other, are not overlapped with each other, are not joined with each other even if they are in contact with each other, or are more preferably separated from each other. At the end. As a result, the support portion 12 configured to include the first branch portion 14 and the second branch portion 15 has increased dimensional tolerance when contacting the sclera 3 of the eyeball 1. Increases flexibility in contact.

  The support portion 12 is formed with a gap portion 17 that is surrounded by the first branch portion 14, the second branch portion 15, and the support ring 13 and extends along the circumferential direction of the optical portion 11. The gap portion 17 is continuously formed in the adjacent second branch portion 15 over a substantially semicircular region along the circumferential direction of the support ring 13 and the optical portion 11. In the sclera 3 of the eyeball 1, a wound 18 for inserting a surgical instrument at a position corresponding to the gap 17 can be formed. The surgical instrument is a light guide for intraocular illumination, a vitreous cutter for excising the vitreous body, an infusion tube for injecting intraocular perfusate into the eyeball 1, and the like.

  The gap 17 may be set to a size (width) that is substantially in contact with the surgical instrument inserted into the wound opening 18, that is, a size that is in contact with the surgical instrument or slightly smaller (width). In this case, the surgical instrument also functions as a fixing instrument for fixing the support part 12 to the sclera 3 by contacting the support part 12 around the gap part 17 and pressing the support part 12. In addition, instead of a surgical instrument, a trocar for connecting a surgical instrument may be driven on the sclera 3 through the gap 17, and the trocar may press the support portion 12 to function as a fixing instrument. .

With the configuration as described above, the following effects (1) to (9) are achieved according to the above embodiment.
(1) In the contact lens 10 for ophthalmic surgery, the back surface 11B of the optical unit 11 is formed in a curved surface corresponding to (adapts to) the shape of the cornea 2 of the eyeball 1, and the back surface 16 of the support unit 12 is the sclera around the cornea of the eyeball 1. 3, the support portion 12 extends from the both sides of the first branch portion 14 extending outward in the diameter direction of the optical portion 11 and the tip end 14 </ b> A of the first branch portion 14. And a second branch portion 15. As a result, the support portion 12 can contact the sclera 3 in a wide range, and the optical portion 11 can be stably held and supported on the cornea 2.

  (2) The support portion 12 in the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 10 is formed with a gap portion 17 that is surrounded by the support ring 13, the first branch portion 14, and the second branch portion 15 and extends in the circumferential direction of the optical portion 11. Therefore, a wound opening 18 for inserting a surgical instrument used for ophthalmic surgery is provided at a position corresponding to the gap 17 in the sclera 3 of the eyeball 1 or a trocar for connecting the surgical instrument is driven in. Can do.

The optical unit 11 and the support unit 12 can be rotated as necessary even when a surgical instrument is inserted into the wound opening 18 formed in the state 3 or a trocar is driven. For this reason, in particular, when the surface 11A is the optical part 11 which is a prism surface, the operability of the contact lens 10 is improved, and the inside of the eyeball can be favorably observed through the optical part 11 of the contact lens 10.

  (4) The gap portion 17 of the support portion 12 in the contact lens 10 for ophthalmic surgery is driven into a surgical instrument inserted into the wound 18 formed in the sclera 3 corresponding to the gap portion 17 or the sclera 3. It may touch the trocar or be set to a slightly smaller dimension. In this case, the surgical instrument or trocar contacts the gap portion 17 and functions as a fixing jig that presses the support portion 12 around the gap portion 17 and fixes the support portion 12. Therefore, the support part 12 can support the optical part 11 more stably by a surgical instrument as a fixing jig. In particular, when the trocar is driven, the stability of the optical unit 11 is further increased, and at the same time, the wound 18 is not required to be provided in the sclera 3, so that post-operative healing is quick.

  (5) Since the support portion 12 in the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 10 is configured with the distal end 15A of the second branch portion 15 away from the distal end 14A of the first branch portion 14 at the free end, the sclera 3 of the eyeball 1 Increases the dimensional tolerance when touching and improves flexibility. As a result, the support unit 12 can stably hold and support the optical unit 11 even with respect to the eyeballs 1 having different dimensions.

  (6) Since the tip 15A of the second branch portion 15 in the support portion 12 is a free end, particularly a free end that is spaced apart from each other, blood, viscoelastic substances, perfusate, and the like during surgery can be quickly discharged. It becomes. For this reason, a surgery can be advanced smoothly and the burden of a patient and an operator can be reduced.

  (7) Since the distal end 15A of the second branch portion 15 in the support portion 12 is a free end, the operation is performed in the gap portion 17 formed by being surrounded by the first branch portion 14, the second branch portion 15 and the support ring 13. Even when an instrument or trocar is arranged, the attachment / detachment of the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 10 can be easily performed.

  (8) Since the support part 12 in the ophthalmic surgical contact lens 10 includes a support ring 13 that detachably fits the optical part 11, the support part 12 and the optical part 11 are separated from each other. Only the part 11 can be rotated relative to the support part 12 or replaced with another optical part 11.

  (9) When the support part 12 in the contact lens 10 for ophthalmic surgery is configured integrally with the optical part 11, the optical part 11 and the support part 12 can be prevented from being lost. It can be simplified.
