How can Oculenis® help your clinic save time?

Serum has long been used in general practice to support corneal ulcer healing, but recent studies show it may not impact outcomes and may actually bind to antibiotics. Because of this, many veterinary ophthalmologists have moved away from using serum for most cases of indolent or non-melting ulcers. Oculenis® offers a clinically proven, off the shelf alternative- helping accelerate corneal healing without the extra time, labor, and special storage and handling involved in preparing serum. While serum may still have a role in managing melting ulcers, Oculenis® can streamline care and save valuable time for the majority of routine superficial corneal ulcers seen in practice. 

*Note: Oculenis® BioHAnce™ Ocular Repair Gel contains a cross linked HA matrix that supports accelerated healing. It does not contain antibiotic or preservatives. Oculenis® is not a one-for-one substitute for serum. Serum contains factors that can neutralize collagenase activity. Collagenases are enzymes that break the peptide bonds in collagen. They assist in destroying extracellular structures in the pathogenesis of bacteria. Thus, in complex cases of infected ulcers, serum still may be required. In addition, antibiotics are required if an infection is present.
