Temporary Ocular Device to Achieve Closure of Corneal Lacerations in Open Globe Injuries

An intraoperative self-reflow corneoscleral prosthetic device/graft (FLOCOP) system consists of four major components: 1. Artificial corneoscleral prosthesis graft consisting of transparent, flexible, biocompatible, gas permeable and suturable polymer with special topological cubicle pattern for stronger tissue bonding; 2. Tissue adhesive: 2-octyl Cyanoacrylate (2OCA)(e.g. DermabondTM) or polyethylene glycol (PEG) (e.g. FDA approved ReSureTM Sealant) fast tissue adhesives applied manually for all wounds; 3.Bio-Microelectromechanical systems (Bio-MEMS) tissue staple consisting of biocompatible metal (or polymer) skeleton or smaller, and bio-degradable structure for positioning on the scleral or ocular adnexal zones to function as a temporary scaffold with long sustention time, especially be applied in the event of larger, more complex wounds; and 4. Staple applicator with magnifying lens to easily and quickly deliver the tissue followed by application of tissue adhesive.
