Abstract
A device implantable into the eye that includes an elongate duct portion defining two lumens that extend parallel to one another from a distal end to a neck spaced longitudinally from the distal end, a second portion including two tubular segments that extend or flare outwardly from the neck opposite one another with at least one additional tubular segment that extends between the two tubular segments such that the tubular segments of the second portion form a tubular loop that surrounds an interior area. The tubular segments of the second portion that form the tubular loop define a common lumen with a plurality of outlets that are in fluid communication with the two lumens of the duct portion to permit fluid to flow through the device.
