Why Dr. Fatima Qureshi, OD, Treats Her Patients With Eclipse

A HUGE thank you to Dr. Fatima Qureshi, OD, for her wonderful testimonial and video! Read her testimonial below and watch her informative video for even more insightful information.

I work in a group ophthalmology private practice in Youngsville , LA and I see a wide variety of eye pathologies, including dry eye. 

Almost all my patients suffer from dry eyes and I noticed how post-cataract patients were coming back with fluctuation with vision due to superficial punctuate keratitis, poor tear film, etc . So in order to help these patients see better, I started treating them with a steroid drop and also started placing the Ophthalogix amniotic membrane, Eclipse. Patients started showing major improvement and it helped with their post-cataract surgical outcome too. It’s a win-win situation!

Now I treat all corneal pathologies with Eclipse before even sending them for refractive or cataract surgery. 

I also do laser surgeries for glaucoma and post-cataract . Again, my protocol is to have a clear cornea in order to proceed with any surgery. 

I have placed Eclipse AMT on at least six to eight patients so far and I’m so happy to see a pristine cornea on corneal staining three days after the procedure. 

I will continue to place Eclipse on my patients.
