Dakota Lions Sight & Health Takes the Pressure Off Surgeons with Advanced, Time-Saving Procedure
This winter, Dakota Lions Sight and Health in Sioux Falls became one of just a few elite eye banks in the country to begin offering pre-loaded corneal tissue for transplant surgery. In this new, advanced procedure, a DLSH lab technician removes the cornea cells from the donor tissue, prepares the Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK) graft, and loads it into a Straiko Modified Jones Tube for transfer to the clinic.
