Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Year Follow-up of a Novel Aqueous Humor MicroShunt
Juan F. Batlle,Francisco Fantes,Isabelle Riss,Leonard Pinchuk,Leonard Pinchuk,Rachel Alburquerque,Yasushi P. Kato,Esdras Arrieta,Adalgisa Corona Peralta,Paul F. Palmberg,Richard K. Parrish,Bruce A. Weber,Jean-Marie A. Parel +12 more
TL;DR: Surgery with the InnFocus MicroShunt transscleral aqueous drainage tube with Mitomycin C achieved IOP control in the low teens in most subjects up to 3 years of follow-up with only transient adverse events occurring within the first 3 months after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of a micro-shunt made from poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene) to treat glaucoma.
Leonard Pinchuk,Isabelle Riss,Juan F. Batlle,Yasushi P. Kato,John B. Martin,Esdras Arrieta,Paul F. Palmberg,Richard K. Parrish,Bruce A. Weber,Yongmoon M. Kwon,Jean-Marie A. Parel +10 more
TL;DR: The InnFocus MicroShunt®, which is a minimally invasive glaucoma drainage micro‐tube used to shunt aqueous humor from the anterior chamber of the eye to a flap formed under the conjunctiva and Tenon's Capsule, is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optomechanical Response of Human and Monkey Lenses in a Lens Stretcher
Fabrice Manns,Jean-Marie A. Parel,David B. Denham,Christian Billotte,Noel M. Ziebarth,David Borja,Viviana Fernandez,Mohammed Aly,Esdras Arrieta,Arthur Ho,Arthur Ho,Brien A Holden +11 more
TL;DR: The force necessary to change the lens diameter and lens power increases with age in human and monkey lenses, which agrees with the Helmholtz theory of accommodation and with presbyopia theories that predict that the force required to disaccommodate the lens increases withAge.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anterior chamber of the eye as a clinical transplantation site for the treatment of diabetes: a study in a baboon model of diabetes.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the long-term survival and function of allogeneic islets after transplantation into the anterior chamber of the eye and provides support for further studies aimed at translating this technology into the clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical power of the isolated human crystalline lens
David Borja,Fabrice Manns,Arthur Ho,Arthur Ho,Noel M. Ziebarth,A. Rosen,Rakhi Jain,A. Amelinckx,Esdras Arrieta,Robert C. Augusteyn,Robert C. Augusteyn,Jean-Marie A. Parel +11 more
TL;DR: The lens power decreases with age, due mainly to a decrease in the contribution of the gradient, and the use of a constant equivalent refractive index value to calculate lens power with the lens maker formula will underestimate the power of young lenses and overestimate thePower of older lenses.
