A New Choice in Platinum
SUNNYVALE, California – MedDev
Corporation, a leading provider of innovative eyelid closure
devices for the surgical treatment of paralytic
lagophthalmos, now offers ThinProfile™
Platinum Eyelid Weight Implants. This new pure platinum
implant offers higher density (11% compared to gold) and
reduced thickness (40% compared to our popular Contour™
design), creating the smallest-profile implant for
optimal lid cosmesis.
Platinum has long been recognized
for excellent biocompatibility and is the preferred implant
material for gold-sensitive patients. Since 1973, MedDev has
provided pure platinum (>99.99%) eyelid implants in 1.0 mm
thickness. Our new ThinProfile Platinum
Eyelid Implant offers a reduced profile permitting an
aesthetically superior postoperative eyelid appearance.
MedDev’s ThinProfile Platinum
Implants are 0.6 mm thick. The implant features a
three-dimensional curvature that conforms precisely to the
shape of the ocular globe. Tapered edges and rounded
corners are blended uniformly to ensure tissue
compatibility. Smoothly chamfered and channel-free suture
holes permit greater flexibility in implant fixation.
Microscopic inspection assures flawless interior walls with
no sharp edges.
MedDev Platinum and Gold Eyelid Weight
Implants are available for immediate delivery in either
Contour or ThinProfile designs. Seven standard
weights are available ranging from 0.6 to 1.8 grams. Five
special order implant weights (Contour design only)
are available from 2.0 to 2.8 grams.
