Functions
The WILENS Veterinary Corneal Bandage Lens is used to promote the healing of corneal ulcers or injuries in animals.
Indication
- Superficial corneal ulcers or wounds.
- Post-operative care after lamellar keratoplasty.
- Superficial keratitis.
- Temporary corneal coverage during the recovery period of eyelid injuries.
- Post-operative care after symblepharon surgery.
- Post-operative care after deep globe puncture surgery.
- Dry eye syndrome (only for dry eye with normal tear volume).
- Helping eye medications to be evenly spread on the cornea.
Contraindications
- Dry keratoconjunctivitis.
- Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS) (if tear volume is normal, veterinarians may consider whether to use).
- Concurrent use of corticosteroid eye drops, which may slow wound healing and cause corneal tissue rupture.
- Concurrent use of oil-based eye medications (e.g., ointments) with bandage lenses. Such oil-based medications may seriously affect the oxygen and moisture balance of the cornea when used with bandage lenses.
Features
Eight Size Options
Eight available sizes allow this product to accommodate diverse animal breeds’ needs while ensuring a comfortable fit.
Effective Protection for Corneal Recovery.
Corneal Ulcers: Reduces pain and preserves the tear film over the ulcer to aid healing.
Corneal Edema: Prevents epithelial blisters from rupturing and alleviates discomfort caused by ulcer friction.
Other Issues: For conditions like distichiasis, entropion, or ectopic cilia, it reduces corneal irritation until surgery can be performed.
Injuries: Provides protection for traumatic injuries like lacerations or perforations.

How to choose the appropriate size
Selecting the appropriate corneal bandage lens requires measuring the animal’s corneal diameter. Measure from limbus to limbus using the included measuring gauge provided with the lens for daily use.
Fitting Protocol
- Measure the corneal diameter.
- Select a lens size closely matching the corneal diameter (refer to the parameter table for specifics).
- If lens looseness occurs, switch to a tighter-fitting lens by selecting a smaller diameter and base curve.
Precautions for Corneal Bandage Lens Placement
- The lens must be positioned beneath the third eyelid.
- Ensure proper placement with a slightly tighter fit.
- Recent findings indicate the lens should not extend beyond the limbus.
- Avoid loose-fitting lenses, as they may become dislodged in animals.
