Intacs Talk given in Birmingham

[GarethB]

Sorry for the delay, but here is the link to my notes on intacs I took at the West Midlands Group Meeting on Saturday 25th November. They can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions Section.

Intacs; What they are and when they are used

Thanks Gareth.

Thanks from me too.

I know I have a fair bit of scarring on both eyes so I believe this may be a no no for me.

Still, I will ask the question when I visit Moorfields next month.

[Anne Klepacz]

And thanks from me too! Though I was surprised at the bit about life span of grafts - there's a lot of us here with grafts still going strong after 20 years or more and we've had talks from other speakers suggesting that a graft could last a lifetime.

I was as a bit concerned about the graft life span myself.

That is one of the reasons it took me a while to post my notes and in the ned I though post everything that was said and open the subject up for debate.

I know graft life span is a concenr to all of us as there appears to be little data on graft patients post 10 years and debating the subject may allow us to get old of the data or provide a good solid subject base from our members to determine if graft life span is this low or is it really higher?
