ABSTRACT:
A cup for use with a vacuum apparatus to modify intraocular pressure by applying a distorting force to the sclera is in the form of a rigid thick-walled hollow cone with beveled base edges dimensioned to fit the curvature of the scleral surface. The inside and outside dimensions of the base are chosen to minimize patient discomfort and the potential for damage to the eye and to promote ease of application.
