Learn more about this safe and effective treatment and how it can help you.
PROKERA® is a therapeutic device used to protect, repair and help damaged eye surfaces.
PROKERA® is made by clipping a piece of amniotic membrane tissue in between two rings made out of a clear, flexible material.
Eyes treated with PROKERA® have quicker healing, less scarring and pain, and less inflammation.
The amniotic membrane is clear and thin like the tissue on the surface of your eye and protects your eye’s damaged tissue while inserted.
Our doctors will use PROKERA® to treat eye diseases like keratitis, corneal scars, chemical burns, corneal defects, partial limbal stem cell deficiency and many other ocular surface problems that involve inflammation.
PROKERA® is a safe, effective treatment that is provided by a tissue bank regulated by the FDA. The tissue has gone through many quality control tests before it is provided to us.
