Patent ID: 8747433

Claim:
An oculopression device for application of force onto a patient's eye, the device including: a head strap constructed to contact and extend over a patient's forehead, while also extending about the patient's head with an adjustability to provide a firm fit to the patient's head, whereby a portion of the head strap positioned at the patient's forehead comprises an attachment location; a mass portion comprising a dense material for provision of the force as a gravitational force rather than a force imposed partly by a strap, the gravitational force being imposed by gravity in an amount proportional to the mass of the mass portion; a timer component with a display portion to display a measure of application time, provided as part of the device to time the application of the mass portion to the patient's eye to prevent application for a duration sufficient to restrict ocular circulation; and an attachment strap means having a first end and a second end, with one of the ends coupled to the mass portion and the other end coupled, at the attachment location, to the timer component.
