Summary:A wound sealing sleeve for use with a goniotomy device has a hollow body with an open end by which the sleeve is attachable to a handle and an open tip through which a shaft is passed. One or more optional ports are formed in the sleeve to provide variable fluid paths. The port or ports may differ in size, shape and positioning on the sleeve. The wound sealing sleeve may be affixed to a handle by threads, a friction fit, glue, or mechanically fastened. The wound sealing sleeve is able to be deformed slightly in order to match the shape or contour of the eye incision to prevent leakage between the exterior surface of the wound sealing sleeve and the surgical incision.
