OUR SOLUTION
The Future is EpiSmart
The culmination of 10 years of ophthalmology practice and research
EpiSmart™
Epion has developed a drug, drug delivery devices, and a UVA light device that fully optimize cross-linking and allow for the minimally-invasive treatment for corneal ectasias, including keratoconus.
Unlike current treatments for keratoconus, EpiSmart is designed to be implemented upon initial diagnosis and can prevent disease progression. Epion’s elegant approach elevates the current standard of care for keratoconus by enabling the treatment of both eyes simultaneously and eliminating the need for further deterioration.*
EpiPrep™
EpiPrep disposable wand enhances epithelial permeability without disruption
EpiPrep disposable loading sponge maintains drug concentration during stromal loading
RiboStat™
High concentration of riboflavin drives diffusion into stroma
Ideal tonicity and pH for penetration through intact epithelium
Sodium iodide removes peroxide, protects cornea and riboflavin, and catalyzes the most favorable reactions for efficient cross-linking
UVA Device
High concentration of riboflavin drives diffusion into stroma
Ideal tonicity and pH for penetration through intact epithelium
Sodium iodide removes peroxide, protects cornea and riboflavin, and catalyzes the most favorable reactions for efficient cross-linking
