Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for inserting an ophthalmological implant between a sclera and a uveal tissue in an eye of a patient. The method includes providing an ophthalmological implant having an anterior edge intended to face the anterior chamber and an posterior edge opposite the anterior edge, and making at least one opening in a corneal tissue. An opening is made in the iris root to form an insertion channel and the ophthalmological implant is inserted through the insertion channel. The ophthalmological implant is positioned between a sclera and a uveal tissue at a position, where the anterior edge of the ophthalmological implant is located in or beyond the insertion channel. The insertion channel is closed so that an iris tissue is disposed between the anterior edge and an anterior chamber of the eye of the patient.
