In Dr. Justin Hellman's own words
How Dr. Justin Hellman describes their own approach, from their Instagram posts. Each statement links to the original.
Approach
- Dr. Justin Hellman's practice performs this procedure in a very easy way.
- I've been using a lot for my dry eye patients who have a little bit of a neurotrophic keratitis and it just brings a lot of healing
Specialization
- Dr. Justin Hellman primarily uses this treatment for dry eye patients.
Technique
- So basically we're using a special amniotic membrane we put on the eye and it brings healing to the eye
- And all we're going to do is just to ensure that that lens stays on for at least 24 hours, we just put a little piece of tape on the eye like this
- And once we test and see that there is a little bit of nerve damage to the eye, that is causing some of their dry eyes
Technology
- We have a basically a contact lens, as you can see here, and the amniotic membrane is inside here
- It stimulates stem cell production and it sends out a healing signal to the body to come in and just heal what needs to be fixed
Recovery guidance
- That contact lens will still sit on the eye, it will either pop out on its own or it will dissolve. Either way is fine
- After 24 hours you get to take the piece of tape off and let the eye just do what it needs to do
Results
- So it's really fantastic for my dry eye patients who have had dry eyes for a long time
- But also, because there's some healing to the ocular surface, I'm getting an amazing improvement with what we call visual acuity

Industry Payments
Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.
Total received (2024)
$31
Payments
2
Compared to peers
Small
Dr. Justin Hellman received $31 across 2 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as entertainment, and the largest single payer was Optos, Inc..
What this means for your care
- A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
- Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
- Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
- A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
