What a wonderful way to start the year 🎉

I’m delighted to share the award of a US patent for my ID7 DMEK trephine:
(https://lnkd.in/g4MrhuYH)

What began as a COVID-era project has become a five-year journey—from initial concept and basic design, through iterative optimisation to improve performance, and clinical trials demonstrating proof of application. This was followed by navigating the patent pathway for IP protection and finally commercialisation with my commercial partner Corza Medical, enabling global availability.

The ID7 DMEK trephine is expected to be available for clinical use from Q2 2026, and I hope it will help make DMEK surgery easier and safer for surgeons and patients worldwide.

2026 is looking good!

Can allergies affect your eyes?

Yes—eye allergies are very common and can cause symptoms like itching, redness, watering, burning, swelling, and even blurred vision.
These symptoms occur when your eyes react to allergens such as dust, pollen, pet dander, or pollution.
