Abstract
A delivery tool connectable with a syringe can be used to deliver a viscoelastic solution. The tool includes a first segment, a second segment and an inner lumen defined by the first and second segments. A distal portion extends from the second segment in a curved manner.
Claims22
A delivery tool connectable to a syringe, comprising:
- a first segment extending along a first axis;
- a second segment connected to the first segment at a bend portion and extending along a second axis that is oriented at a first angle with respect to the first axis, wherein the second segment has a distal opening;
- and
- a tip portion extending from the second segment proximate the distal opening, wherein opposite the second segment, the tip portion has a distal tip, wherein the tip portion tapers from the distal opening to the distal tip, wherein the distal tip has a substantially bulbous shape and wherein the tip portion curves away from the second axis.

A syringe assembly, comprising:
- a delivery tool comprising:
- a first segment extending along a first axis and having a hub;
- a second segment connected to the first segment at a bend portion that is opposite the hub and extending along a second axis that is oriented at a first angle with respect to the first axis, wherein the second segment has a distal opening and wherein the first segment and the second segment define an inner lumen extending from the hub to the distal opening;
- and
- a tip portion extending from the second segment proximate the distal opening, wherein opposite the second segment, the tip portion has a distal tip and wherein the tip portion curves away from the second axis;
- and
- a syringe connected to the hub of the delivery tool so that an axis of the syringe is aligned with the first axis, the syringe including a plunger and rod such that, upon actuation of the rod, fluid is delivered to the lumen of the delivery tool.
