Stem cell therapy is an innovative treatment designed to help repair and regenerate damaged corneal tissue. A specialized lens containing amniotic membrane acts as a delivery system, holding stem cells or stem cell–derived material directly against the surface of the eye to promote healing. Effective treatment for conditions such as corneal injuries, burns, and certain degenerative eye diseases, offering the potential to restore vision and reduce the need for more invasive surgical procedures.
Dr. Bonham uses this treatment method at EyeCare Specialists, allowing us to treat patients locally for corneal conditions many other practices would need to refer patients for!
