Consistently high quality
Because ViscoCel is synthesized from pure cellulose, it is chemically pure and consistent from syringe to syringe. And economical, too.
Stores at room temperature
"My ViscoCel is easy to keep and store, and I can ship it inexpensively anywhere in the world," says Mr. Cobb. And because it requires no refrigeration, ViscoCel is always ready to use. Extended testing shows it will remain shelf-stable for 3 years at 15 to 30°C. |
Protects endothelial cells especially well
ViscoCel's ideal viscosity and mild adhesiveness provides a gel buffer to delicate eye tissues while giving the surgeon a clear operating space.
