About the Event

Context

EyeLife International and TissueGUARD present an exclusive hands-on workshop dedicated to the "Tissue + Tool + Training" synergy.

Focus

Minimizing endothelial cell loss and simplifying graft delivery using German-engineered injectors.

The Technology: TissueGUARD

DMEK Injector Set

The ultimate tool for Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty.

  • Key Feature: Transparent glass-like polymer for 360° visibility of the graft.
  • Benefit: Allows the surgeon to confirm graft orientation (the "M" or "S" mark) before final delivery.

Washing GUARD

A specialized system for the safe rinsing and preparation of donor tissue prior to loading. Ensures the graft remains hydrated and free of debris in a sterile environment.
