What are Amniotic Membranes?

Amniotic Membrane is derived from human placental tissue and recovered during live, scheduled cesarean section births from pre-consenting mothers. Here at Yukon Eyecare we use two different types of amniotic membranes depending on where your eye health journey is at.

Prokera® is a combination medical device used by eye doctors around the world for anti-inflammation, anti-scarring and promoting healing of damaged eye surfaces. It contains the only FDA-cleared cryopreserved amniotic membrane, which supports the corneal-healing process without harmful side effects.
