Pierwszy pacjent na świecie otrzymał protezę oka wydrukowaną w 3D

Ten tekst przeczytasz w 2 min.

W ramach współpracy niemieckiego Instytutu Fraunhofera i brytyjskiej firmy Ocupeye powstała proteza oka wydrukowana za pomocą technologii 3D. 25 listopada w szpitalu Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust eksperci wszczepili pierwszemu w historii pacjentowi w pełni cyfrową protezę oka.

Tradycyjna metoda produkcji sztucznego oka zaczyna się od pomiarów oczodołu za pomocą odlewów z alginianu. Proces ten jest czasochłonny i dosyć nieprzyjemny dla pacjentów, zwłaszcza dla dzieci. Po stworzeniu odlewu proteza tworzona jest ręcznie, m.in. szlifowana do odpowiedniego kształtu, ręcznie malowana, a następnie dopasowywana do oczodołu pacjenta. Proces ten trwa około 6 tygodni, jest dosyć kosztowny, a proteza nigdy nie jest w pełni realistyczna. Naukowcy postanowili zrewolucjonizować tę procedurę za pomocą technologii 3D.

Nieinwazyjna technologia wpływa na komfort pacjentów

Cuttlefish:Eye, oprogramowanie opracowane przez naukowców, nie tylko przyspiesza projektowanie protezy oka, ale również poprawia komfort pacjentów.  Za pomocą technologii 3D eksperci nie muszą wykonywać odlewu z oczodołu pacjenta. Służy temu skan, na podstawie którego można stworzyć model gałki ocznej gotowej do wydrukowania. Skanowanie oka trwa około 2,4 sekundy, a do tego procesu wykorzystywane jest nieinwazyjne i niejonizujące narzędzie ze specjalnie zmodyfikowanego skanera okulistycznego. Oczodół jest bardzo dokładnie mierzony i skalibrowany kolorystycznie ze zdrowym okiem. Cuttlefish:Eye w krótkim czasie tworzy model wydruku 3D na podstawie zebranych danych. Model jest drukowany, a następnie okularysta wykończa go i poleruje.

– Jesteśmy podekscytowani potencjałem tego w pełni cyfrowego oka. Jest to kulminacja 4 lat rozwoju zaawansowanej technologii pomiędzy Moorfields Eye Hospital, UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, Ocupeye Ltd i Fraunhofer. Mamy nadzieję, że zbliżające się badanie kliniczne dostarczy nam solidnych dowodów na temat wartości tej nowej technologii, pokazując, jak bardzo wpływa ona na komfort pacjentów – zaznaczył prof. Mandeep Sagoo, okulista z Moorfields.

Pierwsza implementacja protezy oka w 3D zakończyła się sukcesem

Protezy oka są niezbędne u pacjentów, u których usunięto gałkę oczną chirurgicznie ze względów zdrowotnych – poważnego urazu lub choroby zagrażającej życiu, np. nowotwór oka.

Steve Verze jest pierwszym pacjentem w historii, który otrzymał gałkę oczną wydrukowaną za pomocą technologii 3D. Implementacja protezy zakończyła się sukcesem. Efekt końcowy jest zadowalający, a proteza wygląda realistycznie. ”Jeśli ja nie widzę różnicy, to inni nie będą jej widzieć. Dzięki temu czuję się coraz bardziej pewny siebie” – podkreśla Verze.

Naukowcy wskazują, że za pomocą drukarki 3D Ocupeye są w stanie potencjalnie spełnić roczne zapotrzebowanie na 10 tys. protez oczu na rynku brytyjskim. Zdaniem ekspertów narzędzie może również wpłynąć na skrócenie kolejek pacjentów oczekujących na protezy oka.
