Claims31
An ocular apparatus for medically treating an eye, the ocular apparatus being capable of cooperating with soft tissue proximate the eye, the ocular apparatus comprising:
- a medicament containment member;
- a handle is affixed to the medicament containment member;
- a registration member attached to the medicament containment member and extending outwardly there from, wherein placement of the medicament containment member directly on the eye is maintained by operable cooperation of the registration member and soft tissue proximate the eye;
- a means for biasing the abutment of the registration member with the soft tissue proximate the eye;
- and,
- a current distribution member in electrical communication with the medicament containment member.
An ocular apparatus for medically treating an eye, the ocular apparatus being capable of cooperating with soft tissue proximate the eye, the ocular apparatus comprising:
- a medicament containment member;
- a handle operably connected to the medicament containment member, the handle including a lateral straddling member and a medial straddling member, the lateral straddling member including a first end and a second end, the medial straddling member including a first end and a second end, the first end of the lateral straddling member connected to the medicament containment member and the first end of the medial straddling member connected to the medicament containment member, wherein placement of the medicament containment member directly on the eye is maintained by the operable cooperation of the handle and soft tissue proximate the eye;
- a means for biasing the abutment of the handle with soft tissue proximate the eye;
- and,
- a current distribution member in electrical communication with the medicament containment member.
An ocular apparatus for medically treating an eye, the ocular apparatus being capable of cooperating with soft tissue proximate the eye, the ocular apparatus comprising:
- a medicament containment member;
- a handle operably connected to the medicament containment member, the handle including a lateral straddling member and a medial straddling member, the lateral straddling member including a first end and a second end, the medial straddling member including a first end and a second end, the first end of the lateral straddling member connected to the medicament containment member and the first end of the medial straddling member connected to the medicament containment member, wherein placement of the medicament containment member directly on the eye is maintained by the operable cooperation of the handle and soft tissue proximate the eye;
- a first grip portion attached to the second end of the lateral straddling member;
- a second grip portion attached to the second end of the medial straddling member wherein the first and second grip portions facilitate grasping of the handle;
- and,
- a current distribution member in electrical communication with the medicament containment member.
