Moria
Moria has announced the launch of a system to create ultra-thin, planar corneal lamellar grafts.
The new system consists of seven single-use microkeratome heads ranging from 50 to 300 microns, a single-use artificial chamber, special inflation tubing and syringe sets, and the turbine-driven Moria CB Microkeratome with control unit.
The heads can be used in various combinations in a 2-pass technique to create ultra-thin grafts of approximately 100 microns. The artificial chamber with rotating guide ring allows initiation of the two cuts in opposite quadrants of the cornea, resulting in grafts that are much more planar than conventional grafts. The inflation tubing and infusion syringe sets help to consistently maintain pressure in the system. The new Mini Busin Spatula and Forceps facilitate handling and insertion of the ultra-thin grafts.
The 2-pass DSAEK technique was first proposed by Professor Massimo Busin of Forli, Italy. His studies with the ultra-thin planar flaps he created with the Moria system resulted in visual outcomes that were superior to conventional DSAEK and equivalent to DMAEK.
