ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for treating ear infections in which a straight linear path is established from an external position to a specific target site on the eardrum. Thereafter a laser beam is caused to be emitted along the established path to impinge upon the eardrum to create a hole at the target site. Immediately thereafter, a hollow, tubular drainage missile is caused to be projected along the same established path into the hole formed at the target site to seat therein. The missile maintains the hole open for the drainage of the middle ear for so long as the physician deems necessary.
