CHARACTERISTICS

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: The system requires using a tool to consistently assemble the anterior segment with the donor cornea by crimping them with a snap "LinK" ring. To assemble:

1. Lubricate the tool base posts with water or water based gel.
2. Wet and slide a new LinK ring on the tool base.
3. Insert and center the donor cornea inside the ring.
4. Slide the anterior segment down the tool base so that it sits flush on top of the LinK ring, with the iris facing down towards the cornea.
5. Insert the tool press on the tool base so that it is flush with the anterior segment, then press evenly and firmly on the press to assemble the LinK AC.
6. Remove the assembled AC form the tool base and insert it into the LinK holder by gently opening the flexible holder socket.
7. Fix the holder to a smooth surface with the suction cup.
8. Lift the suction release tab to remove HOLDERfrom surface. DO NOT PULL ON THE HOLDER.

INCLUDE

• 1 Shallow anterior Segment simulator
• 1 Storage box
• * Donor cornea not included

Description

LINK is a hybrid (Organic-Synthetic) EK training platform that creates an anterior chamber model with a real full thickness donor cornea (not included) and an synthetic iris/sclera complex providing both functional and aesthetic realism.

LINK eliminates the inconsistencies of using research globes and provides the opportunity to reuse quality tissue.
