Vetrix® BioSIS

Vetrix^® BioSIS ECM Technology is an extracellular matrix that combines the innate attributes of nature with the precision of science to enable the body heal itself. It is an acellular biomaterial that does not encapsulate when surgically implanted, but is gradually remodeled, leaving behind organized and healthy tissue. The body’s tissue begins remodeling at the surgical site while BioSIS maintains the needed tissue support. When implanted, BioSIS acts as a scaffold into which the patient’s cells migrate and integrate. The patient’s cells lay down their own collagen, which matures over time to form strong and permanent tissue repair without leaving behind permanent foreign material. BioSIS is a collagen matrix, and therefore, the device is gradually replaced as the patient’s tissue gradually turns over in a natural state of self-renewal.
 
BioSIS is available in both graft and ocular disc form.
