Fiber-optic Implantation for Chronic Optogenetic Stimulation of Brain Tissue
Published on: October 29, 2012
Abstract:
A cyclodialysis spatula for glaucoma surgery with a fiber-optics bundle incorporated within its thickness is described. The instrument is used as is commonly done at present with the standard cyclodialysis spatula. In addition, the fiber-optics bundle delivers cold light to the tip of the spatula which is useful in helping the surgeon locate the spatula within the sclera and the anterior chamber.
