Prof. Cosimo Mazzotta Presents the C-eye Device at the 99th National SOI Congress in Rome

EMAGine Scientific Advisory Board member, Prof. Cosimo Mazzotta of the University of Siena, Italy, stood at the podium and gave a presentation about the EMAGine C-eye device on Friday, November 22nd, 2019.

In a presentation titled “C-eye: New Cross-Linker at the Slit Lamp”, Prof. Mazzotta introduced delegates assembled in Rome for the 99th National Congress of the Società Oftalmologica Italiana (SOI) to the new, portable C-eye cross-linking device and how it enables cross-linking to be performed at the slit lamp. He then went on to review the benefits that a cross-linking at the slit lamp approach can bring – namely reducing costs by bringing the procedure outside of the operating room, and “democratizing” access to corneal cross-linking for both ectasia and infectious keratitis (in a process called “PACK-CXL”).
