About Amniotic Membrane Transplant

Amniotic Membrane Transplantation is a procedure used to treat a number of eye conditions including corneal ulcers, limbal stem cell deficiency, and conjunctiva reconstruction. In this procedure, the amniotic membrane from the placenta is used as a graft in part of the eye. The amniotic membrane is used due to its potential to generate growth, migration, and differentiation of cells.
