Surgeon Experience

“I am very excited about the possibility of using the Allotex TransForm lenticules for the treatment of presbyopia and other refractive indications.” Dr. Cummings said. “Being able to use allogenic lenses, which have been produced with very high precision, addresses the concerns that arise from the use of synthetic corneal implants. TransForm has the potential to address the ever-expanding market place for presbyopic treatments.”

“Made of allogenic material, the biocompatible inlay allows oxygen and nutrients to pass freely through the cornea, unlike some synthetic corneal inlays. This ensures a stable cornea, decreases the risks of corneal necrosis and melt that have been seen with synthetic inlays, and avoids the inflammation related to insertion of a synthetic material into the cornea.” reported Josan Jakob in a CRST article.

Vance Thompson commented: “The Allotex inlay represents a major advancement in corneal tissue micro-engineering. Unlike current artificial inlays, the enhanced biocompatibility of lenticules prepared from actual corneal tissue ushers in a new era of refractive surgery by tissue addition. These novel products promise to improve the visual function of many patients.”

"The outstanding clinical results that we have seen with our use of the TransForm implant clearly demonstrate the exciting potential for allogeneic refractive implants." said Aylin Kilic, MD, Associate Professor and Director of Refractive Surgery at MediPol Hospital in Istanbul. "The procedure is quick, simple, and provides immediate patient satisfaction. Patients are thrilled that they can read their phones right after surgery. Our 3-year results show that the safe use of allogeneic material far surpasses the prior attempts to use synthetic material for cornea."

“The lenticules are easy to manipulate when wet, and— once put in place to dry—they remain securely where positioned." Dr.Cummings said. “No lenticule moved postoperatively, and when incorrectly placed, they can be easily recentred by lifting the LASIK flap and placing it in the correct position. I see this being used an awful lot more in combination with LASIK.”
