  • Dear Dr,

    I'm no surgeon. I've just joined an amniotic graft company in Malaysia as a marketing person. I wanted to do some research on the product. Your video is just amazing.

    Thank you

  • Thanks, and best of luck! Amnion membrane is an amazing product to use for eye surgery. I have since modified my technique wherein we do not use any initial sutures. I'll let you know when we update. Also we have a new one I am editing. Aloha!

  • Dr. Camara,

    Wonderful video. I am also an ophthalmologist, currently in Boston but raised in Oahu. The explanatory texts and post-op footage take this video to new educational level. Thankyou.

  • Dr. Camara. I went to watch the youtube video on your pterygium surgery with the placenta graft. GREAT MUSIC!! You make it look easy. It makes me want to go sit in the sun so I can develop a pterygium.
