TOPIC:
PROSE Scleral Lens - An Option for Damaged Cornea or Ocular Surface and Dry Eye
Presented by Daniel Brocks, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, BostonSight
The PROSE prosthetic device creates a new smooth surface over damaged cornea or ocular surface and dry eye.
PROSE devices are FDA-cleared, transparent domes, about the size of a nickel, made of gas-permeable plastic that allows oxygen to reach the surface of your eye. The devices rest on the sclera – the white part of your eye – and vault over the cornea to create a smooth surface over the distorted, damaged, or diseased cornea. They are filled with fresh, sterile, preservative-free saline each day at the time of application and are removed at bedtime.
Family members, caregivers, friends, and interested persons are welcome to attend. Virtual group meetings provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment with individuals who have shared acoustic neuroma experiences. You can also find educational opportunities on a variety of AN topics of interest, emotional support, and encouragement throughout all stages of the AN journey.
The meeting will be facilitated by Iryna Mosendz, a post-treatment acoustic neuroma patient.
