PURI PROTECT®
Protective physiological irrigation solution enriched
with taurine
Especially long lasting surgical procedures, with a high flow of irrigation solution, can cause clinically visible changes of the retina. Light energy through fibre optics can injure the pigment epithelial layer and the retina irreversibly, and the contact of the instruments with the retina may induce thermal and mechanical damage.

PURI PROTECT is the only physiological irrigation solution with the essential amino acid taurine, which provides protection during irrigation.

PURI PROTECT Taurine plays a vital role in cell physiology, maintenance and protection due to its multifunctional properties:
  • Antioxidant
  • Membrane stabilizer
  • Osmoregulant
  • Calcium modulator

    PURI PROTECT
  • Reduces corneal edema
  • Reduces ganglion retinal apoptosis
  • Reduces retinal toxicity induced by glutamate
  • May lead to a faster visual rehabilitation
