AMNIOVET™ is an original biomaterial. Its texture gives it great versatility of use for the protection and reconstruction of tissues.
Due to its plasticity, it embraces defects of corneal, scleral or conjunctival substance to provide optimal filling.
Thanks to its resistance, it also provides greater safety, especially in ocular perforations.
Its presentation in large plate allows for circumscribed grafts or complete ocular coverings that ensure:

• A draining effect, useful to limit vascular proliferation in the corneal stroma during simple keratectomy or autologous transplantation.
• extraocular counterpressure, appreciable during corneal drilling to consolidate the depth of the anterior chamber.
• epithelial protection of tissues weakened by a transient alteration (neurotrophic keratitis, proptosis, etc.).

AMNIOVET™ therefore becomes an indispensable tool in the therapeutic arsenal of our surgical practice.

I routinely use amniotic membranes for corneal transplants. The AMNIOVET™ membrane is very easy to use thanks to its significant thickness and easy-to-suture texture. It does not tear, epithelializes rapidly and integrates with little lysis.

It is a highly recommended product for anterior keratectomies in feline corneal sequestration, anterior stromal ulcers or even for loss of substance. Its cost is reasonable, its transport is controlled and its conservation keeps it available in our standard freezer, available at any time in our clinic.
