Three elderly women have been blinded after receiving stem cell injections in a clinic located in Broward county, Florida. The incidents reportedly occurred in the summer of 2015. The discovery was made by Thomas Albini, a clinical ophthalmologist with the University of Miami Health System’s Bascom Palmer Eye Institute

The three women had the treatments performed on the same day. The stem cells were extracted via each of their body fat. There was hardly any follow up evaluations and they were each charged $5,000 for the treatments.
“When that all was revealed, I was just in disbelief that this was happening in Broward,” said Albini, who helped care for two of the three women and co-wrote an article in this week’s New England Journal of Medicine.

“But I really was naive to the fact that this could happen in the United States. Then I realized I was just as naive about it as the patients were.”

But according to an article in the Miami Herald, the CEO, Mike Tomas, of the clinic in Sunrise, Florida feels this is all a sham with the goal of conjuring up bad press against his business.

“For nearly 20 years our clinics have conducted more than 7,000 stem cell procedures with less than 0.01 percent adverse reactions reported,” he said

As it currently stands, very few stem cell treatments have been shown to be safe. These treatments are unproven. Various stem cells all serve different purposes, making it an inconsistent science. In other words, one stem cell treatment doesn’t validate another. Cells residing in a human body don’t automatically make them safe to use in these treatments. And much of the stem cell marketing is highly misleading.
