Assessment of Ocriplasmin Effects on the Vitreoretinal Compartment in Porcine and Human Model Systems

Ocriplasmin (Jetrea®) is a recombinant protease used to treat vitreomacular traction. To gain insight into vitreoretinal observations reported after ocriplasmin treatment, we have developed an in vivo porcine ocriplasmin-induced posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) model in which we investigated vitr...
