Strong  KOL  Support  •  “Most  pa9ents  who  have  experienced  pronounced  bruising  in  the  past  experience  li=le  to  no  

bruising  with  the  use  of  these  arnica-­‐infused  patches.    OcuMend  has  quickly  become  an  integral  part  of  my  post-­‐injec9on  protocol.”      Tina  Alster  M.D.  

•  My  pa9ents...benefit  from  the  use  of  OcuMend...  it  seems  to  help  drama9cally.    They  come  back  to  see  me  one  week  later  with  very  li=le  bruising.    In  fact,  I  have  seen  a  pa9ent  on  3  days  aJer  surgery  who  had  significant  bruising  right  aJer  the  surgery  and  she  was  almost  clear  of  any  ecchymosis  (bruising).    Wendy  Lee  M.D.  

•  “The  use  of  OcuMend  has  decreased  the  amount  of  bruising  and  swelling  in  the  post-­‐opera9ve  period.  This  has  led  to  a  no9ceable  improvement  in  the  recovery  of  my  cosme9c  blepharoplasty  pa9ents.”      William  Mack,  M.D.
