Abstract
An ocular device for treating glaucoma in an eye are described herein. The ocular device includes a first end, a second end, and a body. The first end is configured to seat in an anterior chamber of an eye. The first end includes an inlet configured to facilitate an ingress of aqueous humor into the ocular device. The second end is configured to seat in a tear film of the eye. The second end includes an outlet configured to facilitate release a flow of the aqueous humor into the tear film. The body is defined by a fluid conduit. The body includes a lumen having a lumen length and a lumen cross sectional area. The lumen length and the lumen cross sectional area are configured to control an intraocular pressure (IOP) of the eye by controlling the flow of the aqueous humor through the lumen.
