MRI safety

MR scans can be performed for eyeWatch patients. 

It has been demonstrated that the eyeWatch implant is an MR conditional device. The MR conditions are listed in the instructions for use. Under such conditions, the patients can safely undergo MR scans after eyeWatch implantation. The implant's magnet however may create a local artefact around the operated eye. 

​

Important note:

It is essential that after an MR scan, the patient should refer to a trained ophthalmologist for verification (and likely adjustment) of the eyeWatch's magnet position as it might have changed during the scan.
