ABSTRACT:
Means for scientifically supervised use when treating severe injuries and infections of the human eye. It enables a doctor or his nurse to administer a regulable but constant instillation of an antibiotic solution, chemotherapeutic agents, steroids or like solutions to the corneal area of the eyeball. A molded shield is conformingly superimposed on the eyeball and embodies a centralized concavo-convex corneal lens surrounded by a rim-like annulus which resides conformingly atop the sclera. Flexible tubing delivers the solution from a solution feeding bottle to the annulus in a manner that the eyeball is continuously lavaged while the over-all shield "floats" atop the constantly existing film of fluid.
