K-IONO Generator for Iontophoresis
Reusable iontophoresis generator delivering a fixed dose of 10 mA.min.
Offers a user-selectable treatment protocol ranging from 2.5 to 10 minutes (treatment duration automatically adjusts corresponding to the user-selected mild electrical current setting).
Electrical current selectable from 1 to 4 mA. (i.e. 1mA x 10min, to 4mA x 2.5min = 10mA.min)
The generator, in combination with the IONTOFOR-VET electrode, allows for the transepithelial delivery of Intravenous (I.V.) drug products (such as riboflavin for corneal cross-linking) into the corneal stroma via iontophoresis.
IONTOPHORESIS is a process of applying a low intensity electrical current on a tissue to increases the penetration of a charged substance. This applies not only to Riboflavin used in corneal cross-linking, but also several other charged drug products. Iontophoresis significantly reduces the drug delivery time compared to topical/drop applications and provides a consistent medication dose concentration through the cornea.
