## Indications for use
Ocu-Guard™ and Supple Ocu-Guard™ are indicated for use as an orbital implant wrap to cover any type or shape of orbital implant used in enucleation surgery. The product is easy to handle and trim and conforms to the shape of the Implant. Ocu-Guard and Supple Ocu-Guard allow for tissue ingrowth through the vascularization process and protect the surrounding orbital tissue from the surface of the orbital implant, decreasing the risk of implant exposure. Ocu-Guard and Supple Ocu-Guard also allow for muscle reattachment to faciiitate motility of the implant.
