Dr. Eric Donnenfeld performed Long Island’s first iDose TR procedure on August 15, 2024, revolutionizing glaucoma treatment with continuous medication delivery. This achievement underscores OCLI Vision’s leadership in innovative eye care.
GARDEN CITY, N.Y., Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — OCLI Vision is proud to announce a groundbreaking achievement at one of its Long Island locations. Thursday, August 15th, Dr. Eric Donnenfeld, MD, one of the nation’s top ophthalmologists, accomplished a historic milestone by performing Long Island’s very first iDose TR procedure.
Dr.Donnenfeld is a trailblazer in ophthalmology, renowned for his expertise in refractive, cornea, and cataract surgery. His exceptional skill has earned him the title of Newsweek’s top ophthalmologist in the United States for three years running (2021, 2022, 2023). His reputation as a leading authority in eye care is firmly established.
The iDose TR procedure marks a revolutionary leap in treating Open-Angle Glaucoma (OAG) and Ocular Hypertension (OHT). This cutting-edge treatment involves a unique, long-duration, anchored intracameral therapy that continuously delivers prostaglandin analogs directly into the eye’s anterior chamber. This steady medication release ensures superior, long-term control of intraocular pressure (IOP), offering patients a groundbreaking alternative to traditional treatments.
This pioneering procedure not only highlights OCLI Vision’s dedication to incorporating the latest advancements in eye care but also underscores Dr. Donnenfeld’s role in pushing the boundaries of ophthalmologic innovation. The successful execution of iDose TR reinforces OCLI Vision’s reputation as a leader in cutting-edge eye care.
For those eager to learn more about this revolutionary procedure and explore how it might benefit your eye health, please contact OCLI Vision at 833-509-6254 for more information.

According to the Lymphatic Education & Research Network, an estimated 1 in every 1,000 people in the United States suffers from lymphedema. Among cancer survivors, the prevalence is higher, with about 20-40% of breast cancer survivors developing lymphedema, particularly post-surgery and radiation therapy. The economic impact of lymphedema includes direct medical costs for treatment and indirect costs such as lost productivity.
Dr. Andrew Elkwood, practicing surgeon and founder of The Institute for Advanced Reconstruction stated, “Dr. Dayan’s arrival marks a significant milestone for patients seeking advanced treatment options for lymphedema, a condition that poses significant challenges for individuals, particularly those undergoing breast cancer treatment. While lifelong compression and physiotherapy have been standard treatment approaches, many patients continue to experience disease progression despite their compliance. Dr. Dayan’s expertise offers hope for those in need of alternative solutions.”
“Joining The Institute for Advanced Reconstruction and establishing The Institute for Lymphatic Surgery and Innovation will offer patients suffering from lymphedema a new option for care that will feature state-of-the-art techniques with use of some of the newest technology and instruments in the world,” said Dr. Dayan. “Our established presence in NJ and partnerships with some of the most well-known reconstructive surgery practices throughout the United States will offer patients new innovative options for care of this prevalent disease.”
In addition to assembling a clinical team of experts in lymphatic surgery, The Institute for Lymphatic Surgery and Innovation purchased a Mitaka microscope, the highest resolution microscope available designed specifically for intricate procedures such as lymphatic surgery, allowing surgeons to visualize and operate on lymphatic vessels with exceptional clarity and precision. Other advanced instruments being used at The Institute include an ultra-high frequency ultrasound and ICG lymphangiography, further enhancing specific care for patients.
Dr. Dayan began seeing patients from around the world and performed the first lymphatic surgery at The Valley Hospital on August 16th. The surgery included immediate lymphatic reconstruction using lymphovenous bypass to reduce the risk of lymphedema at the time of axillary dissection.
Dr. Dayan’s surgical contributions extend to several areas. For breast reconstruction, he utilizes techniques that use the patient’s own tissue, including DIEP, GAP, and PAP flaps. Notably, Dr. Dayan pioneered the DUG flap technique, expanding treatment options for a broader range of patients. Dr. Dayan has extensive microsurgical experience utilizing a range of techniques to reanimate the face due to facial paralysis from conditions like parotid cancer, acoustic neuroma, Bell’s Palsy and developmental facial paralysis. He is an expert in surgical planning that utilizes nerve transfers, grafts and muscle transfers to restore function and quality of life to patients with facial paralysis.
Prior to joining The Institute, Dr. Dayan spent 10 years at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where he established lymphatic surgery and facial nerve programs, and honed his skills through an esteemed fellowship in advanced microsurgical reconstruction at the renowned Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan.
Dr. Dayan was honored with the prestigious Godina Traveling Fellowship in recognition of his significant contributions to microsurgery. With over 100 peer-reviewed publications, numerous book chapters, and his recent editorial work on a textbook dedicated to lymphedema, Dr. Dayan continues to advance knowledge and understanding in his areas of expertise. He serves as the founding president of the American Society for Lymphatic Surgery and has been a dedicated board member of the Lymphatic Education and Research Network for over a decade.
Dr. Dayan has been recognized with several prestigious awards, including Castle Connolly’s America’s Top Doctor in 2024, Top Doctor in the New York Metro Area in 2023, and national and regional Top Doctor in New York Magazine from 2016 to 2020.
Dr. Dayan is currently seeing patients in Westwood, NJ. For more information or to schedule a consultation, please visit www.AdvancedReconstruction.com or call 833-598-2417.

The Freedom Titan PCK Revision Knee System maintains the same advanced, clinically proven design as the Freedom PCK Revision Knee System, featuring progressive constraint kinematics, multi-radius femoral design, patented trapezoidal box, and titanium stems, augments and couplers. Titan PCK has a unique golden color on the femoral and tibial components from the titanium niobium nitride (TiNbN) coating produced by a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. The strong TiNbN coating has been shown to block or significantly reduce the release of metal ions common in orthopedic joint replacement implants.
Titan PCK System demonstrates our ongoing pursuit of knee arthroplasty solutions that address needs in total joint replacement, especially the 10-15% of the population with metal sensitivity. Farzin Khaghani, Chief Commercial Officer, states “The FDA clearance of Freedom Titan PCK System further demonstrates our commitment to developing a strong product pipeline that broadens our portfolio, drives growth, and addresses the needs of a diverse patient population. We are thrilled to offer our distinct Titan knee portfolio to osteoarthritis patients dealing with challenges associated with metal sensitivity.”
Maxx Orthopedics has established a partnership with Unik Orthopedics (UNIKO) to offer personalized surgical instrument blocks for total knee arthroplasty.
UNIKO recently received FDA 510(k) clearance for PointCloud™ Knee Instrument intended for use in surgery to assist with intraoperative implant placement and as a guide for bony resections during total knee replacements. Preoperative MRI scans are obtained during the Pre-Op planning process and used to identify anatomic landmarks necessary for alignment and positioning of the implant during the procedure.
UNIKO PointCloud Knee Instruments (UKI) and the Vault System (web-based surgical planning tool) are compatible with the Freedom® Total Knee System. Combining the UNIKO PointCloud with our Quick Recovery Solutions (QRS®) platform, offers a perfect blend of complementary technologies and an efficient, cost-effective solution for ambulatory surgery centers and hospitals.
The PointCloud Knee Instruments allow surgeons to have patient-specific, CNC machined solid block (Acetal-C), single-use instruments during surgery. Surgeons will be able to precisely template PSI blocks during pre-operative planning and recommend patient-specific component sizing. “Dr. Kurtis Biggs (Naples, FL) recently performed the first Freedom Primary Knee procedure in the United States using the new UNIK Ortho PSI blocks. Our partnership with UNIKO should increase efficiency for total knee arthroplasty within outpatient surgery centers and hospitals. We are excited to offer QRS, Freedom Knee System, and PointCloud technologies together for the benefit of both patients and surgeons, states Anand Bala, Vice President of Product.

“It is vital to spread awareness about how vestibular dysfunction can dramatically impact one’s life, and provide hope to people struggling with these symptoms,” said Cynthia Ryan, Executive Director of VeDA. “Even though these may be chronic conditions, there are treatments and coping strategies that can help you regain function and improve your quality of life.”
“Losing balance can feel like losing control of your body,” says Darcy Bonjour, a vestibular patient and VeDA Board Member. “It can be scary and overwhelming. When I started my vestibular journey in 2005, I can still remember how I felt the first time I walked in public. I was so unsteady I had to hold onto my husband to stay upright.”
“Until I lost my balance, I took my vestibular system for granted,” says Jennifer Crespo. “Then, when I was 36 weeks pregnant, my life literally turned upside down. I went from having complete balance to losing it in a matter of seconds. This led to developing a chronic disorder that has persisted for years.”
Darcy and Jennifer are among the many VeDA Ambassadors who have transformed their painful experiences into a force for good. They strive to lessen the stigma related to chronic vestibular dysfunction and inspire people to seek the care and support they need.
