The September 2015 issue of Eye Insights™, a clinical advisory newsletter published by Massachusetts Eye and Ear and Massachusetts General Hospital, is now available. This issue focuses on the Boston KPro, specifically on how to manage complications associated with implantation, postoperative treatment guidelines, and new clinical innovations. See the full text here (PDF).
“The clinical success of the Boston KPro has required a great collaborative effort among Harvard’s ophthalmic research community and close research partners at MIT. Turning the Boston KPro into a viable, clinical reality for patients has required multi-disciplinary expertise not only in surgery but in biomaterials, bioengineering, optics, inflammation, bacteriology, glaucoma, retinal detachment, plastics and contact lenses.”
