PYK-1107 Retinal Sealant

  • The retinal detachment is repaired in the usual manner and retinal breaks are sealed with laser
  • Instead of injecting gas or oil, PYK-1107 is applied to the site of retinal breaks, forming a solid gel
  • This gel barrier prevents fluid from being introduced to the subretinal space
  • After several weeks, the gel biodegrades and is eliminated from the eye

retinal surface

fly if needed

biodegrades

PYK-1107 was designed to biodegrade, so unlike oil, no second surgery is needed

Clear Vision

PYK-1107 was designed to mimic the natural optics of the eye, so there is no blurred vision after surgery
