WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/122837

A1

Disclosed is an intraocular pressure control device that includes a pressure control member. The intraocular pressure control device (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is mounted in a human body so as to be adjacent to an eyeball (10), comprises: an aqueous humor moving tube (110) having a tubular structure, one end portion of which communicates with the inside of the eyeball, and an opposite end portion of which communicates with an aqueous humor receiving part (120), wherein the aqueous humor moving tube (110) enables aqueous humor to be extracted from the inside of the eyeball or to be introduced into the eyeball; the aqueous humor receiving part (120) equipped, at one side thereof, with the aqueous humor moving tube (110) and having a receiving space therein in which the aqueous humor can be received; and a pressure control member (130) mounted in, or adjacent to, the aqueous humor receiving part (120) to control pressure applied to the aqueous humor receiving part (120) to control the volume of the receiving space. According to the present invention, it is possible to naturally control the internal pressure of an eyeball by means of the flow and flow rate of aqueous humor produced in the eyeball.
