Early intervention is critical in eye care. Prokera corneal bandages are designed for treating damaged corneas by creating an environment for regenerative healing. Prokera helps expedite and empower the eye’s healing abilities for better patient outcomes.

AmnioGraft, a cryopreserved amniotic membrane graft, supports accelerated post-op recovery and ensures superior patient outcomes when used in ocular surface reconstructive procedures.1,6-7,9

AmnioGuard is an ultra-thick, cryopreserved amniotic membrane graft that suppresses inflammation, promotes healing, and provides durable tensile strength to avoid surgical challenges associated with reconstructive procedures.1-4
