Corneal Inlays: Getting it Right

Jeff Machat, MD, FRCSC, DABO

Show Description +

Jeff Machat, MD, says he is excited by inlay technology and has been successfully incorporating it into his practice. He notes his experience with the two commercially available products (Kamra; Acufocus and the Raindrop; ReVision Optics). The inlays exhibit a high safety profile, he says, and have the unique and important aspect of removability. The removal rate is only 2% to 4%, revealing how much the procedure has evolved over time, increasing the safety and efficacy of corneal inlays.
