What is amniotic membrane transplantation?
An amniotic membrane is harvested from placental tissue. This membrane is used to reconstruct the surface of the eye. Amniotic membrane transplantation is used to heal various eye surface disorders or injuries.
How long does the amniotic membrane transplantation procedure take?
The entire procedure takes just over an hour.
How long is the healing process after amniotic membrane transplantation?
Following amniotic membrane transplantation, the membrane is sutured down or glued in place using fibrin glue. This will fully heal in 4 to 6 weeks.
