Amniotic Membrane

Amniotic Membranes are utilized to treat severe ocular surface disease including, but not limited to, slow or non-healing corneal epithelial erosions, defects or ulceration. Epithelial erosion can occur with severe dry eye (chronic unstable tear film), corneal abrasions, neurotrophic keratitis, corneal dystrophies and other conditions. Treatment with an amniotic membrane at Eyewell includes placement of the membrane on the affected eye and follow up visits to ensure proper healing and removal the membrane.
