MEDICEM focuses on R&D for ophthalmic surgery solutions featuring its proprietary, versatile WIGEL® bioanalogic hydrogel material platform. WIGEL® is a transparent hydrogel with stable 3D structure, improved biocompatibility, and a clinically proven safety and efficacy profile in intraocular use. It offers high efficacy of modification by femtosecond laser, enabling controlled material depolymerisation, and the creation of precise, spatially localized refractive index changes within the material.
We own substantial intellectual property in the field and take particular interest in development of a new, advanced generation of intraocular lenses that are post-operatively and non-invasively adjustable by ophthalmic lasers.
