Abstract

The described devices and methods are useful in the field of ophthalmology Descπbed herein are epithelial delaminators, applicators, lens inserters and methods of using those devices for separating an epithelium from a cornea and for introducing an ocular device beneath a corneal epithelium Typically, the devices may be used to lift a section or portion of the corneal epithelium and, variously, to insert a lens or other ocular correction device beneath the lifted epitnelium in a single application stroke to introduce a medicine or diagnostic material beneath the epithelium, or simply to lift the epithelium for other treatment or for conducting reformation of the cornea, perhaps using a laser or mechanical device The described devices and methods for using them involve separating or lifting corneal epithelium from the eye in a substantially continuous layer to form a flap or pocket
