DESCEMET MEMBRANE ENDOTHELIAL KERATOPLASTY
DMEK Tissue
Partial thickness grafts for posterior lamellar procedures.
Preparation and customization
- DMEK grafts are peeled with a peripheral hinge attachment and yield a greater than 8mm diameter graft. An “F” or “S” orientation marking can be made on the graft upon request.
Pre-Loaded DMEK Tissue
- Weiss Glass Cannula – LWVI – The tissue has been prepared in an aseptic manner using the modified scuba technique, “F” or “S” stamped (optional), trephinated with a corneal punch, stained with trypan blue and loaded into a glass cannula. Typical pre-punches are 7.5mm, 7.75mm and 8mm. This glass cannula will decrease corneal incision size for DMEK procedures.
- Weiss Glass Cannula – STRAIKO – The tissue has been prepared in an aseptic manner using the modified scuba technique, “F” or “S” stamped (optional), trephinated with a corneal punch, stained with trypan blue and loaded into a glass cannula. Typical pre-punches are 7.5mm, 7.75mm and 8mm.
