Versatile light-guided ophthalmic treatment system

A light-guided, ophthalmic-treatment device comprising:

• an ophthalmic treatment wand having a body made of light transmissive material, said ophthalmic treatment wand having a distal end;
• and
• a plurality of emission ports at least partially circumscribing the distal end;
• wherein said ophthalmic treatment wand is configured to propagate light through the body to the plurality of emission ports.

A modular, light-guided ophthalmic-treatment-system comprising:

• an ophthalmic-treatment wand, said wand having a body having a plurality of illumination markers at least partially outlining an interchangeable therapeutic applicator when attached to the wand;
• and
• a plurality of modular interchangeable therapeutic applicators, each of the applicators releasably connectable with the wand,
• each applicator embodying a different therapeutic agent delivery configuration operative to administer a therapeutic agent, wherein each of the plurality of the modular therapeutic applicators is selected from the group consisting of a perforated dispenser, a medicated-patch applicator, a treatment-light array, an injector array, a micro-needle array, and a radioactive-therapeutic container.

A method for constructing a modular, light-guided ophthalmic-treatment-system comprising:

• providing an ophthalmic treatment wand made of a light transmissive material, said wand having a distal end with a plurality of emission ports at least partially circumscribing said distal end,
• said wand is configured to propagate light through the wand to the plurality of emission ports at least partially circumscribing the distal end of the wand;
• and
• releasably connecting the therapeutic applicator to the distal end of the wand.
