Mastering DMEK with TissueGUARD’s Innovative Delivery Systems
EyeLife International and TissueGUARD present an exclusive hands-on workshop dedicated to the "Tissue + Tool + Training" synergy.
Minimizing endothelial cell loss and simplifying graft delivery using German-engineered injectors.

The ultimate tool for Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty.

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.

Chairman of experts eye center, Giza, Egypt

Ophthalmology, Tunis, Tunisia
Salah Mahjoub, M.D. a graduate from the Faculty of Medicine of Tunis completed his ophthalmology specialty at the Faculty of Medicine of Tunis & Toulouse University – France. He was cornea fellowship trained at Louisiana State University -USA (1986-1989). He is one of the pioneers of refractive & modern cataract surgery in Africa. He was founder & president of the African Society of Refractive Surgery in 2000. He serves actually as cornea & refractive surgery Director at the Clinic of Ophtalmology of Tunis a leading and first ISO 9001/2000 certified medical Centre in Africa.
