NovaBay Pharmaceuticals Partners with Woo University to Educate Eyecare Professionals on the Use of Amniotic Membranes

NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: NBY) announces its partnership with Woo University to support the education of eyecare professionals on the use of amniotic membranes. A free webinar is being held Thursday, December 7, 2023 from 5:30-6:30 pm Pacific time, and eyecare professionals can register here. In September 2023 NovaBay commercially launched its prescription amniotic membrane product Avenova® Allograft, which is intended for use as a protective covering during the repair of ocular surfaces.

The optometric continuing education (CE)-credit webinar will feature host Dr. Stephanie Woo, moderator Dr. Elise Kramer, and sponsor presenter Dr. Maria Sampalis discussing the role of amniotic membranes in treating a variety of ocular surface conditions, candidate selection, and billing and coding. The webinar will also feature case reports demonstrating the healing power of amniotic membranes. Woo University is a non-profit organization committed to providing high-quality continuing education to eyecare professionals around the world.

“This webinar is intended to provide optometrists with useful information about how to incorporate amniotic membranes into their practices while providing NovaBay with the opportunity to create further awareness of our high-quality product among our targeted customer base,” said Justin Hall, CEO and General Counsel of NovaBay. “This event is just one of a number of outreach programs aimed at educating eyecare specialists on the clinical benefits of the Avenova Allograft, which we believe will be important in positioning and differentiating our product among prospective customers.”

The Avenova® Allograft provides a protective environment or covering for repair of the cornea and conjunctiva, helping ocular surface to return to a healthier state. It is the only optic allograft manufactured using the patented six-step BioREtain® process that preserves the natural integrity of the placental tissue. The product consists only of the amnion layer of the placental membrane and measures between 20-50 microns thick, making it ideal for delicate ophthalmic applications. Avenova Allograft is available in 8mm, 10mm and 12mm diameter sizes. The Avenova Allograft competes in a global market estimated at $403.6 million in 2022, which is expected to grow at 9.8% per year between 2023-2030. Eyecare professionals can order Avenova Allograft directly on Avenova.com.

In addition to the allograft product, NovaBay’s Avenova suite of products include Avenova antimicrobial lid and lash spray, specially designed dry wipes, lubricating eye drops, a warm eye compress, oral supplements and the i-Chek mirror to monitor physical eyelid health.
