She had mild diffuse conjunctival injection and severe diffuse punctate epithelial erosions in the left eye (Fig. 1a, Fig. 1ba and b) while the right eye was unremarkable for eyelid, conjunctival, corneal or lenticular abnormalities. Pachymetry was 532 in the right eye, 523 in the left eye...
At 7 days postoperatively, the size of the conjunctival wound remained significantly smaller in Group B eyes (P < .01).The saline injection produced a faster rate of conjunctival wound closure than standard manual reapposition.doi:10.1016/S0886-3350(96)80075-7Meacock, W.R....
After discussing the risks (including conjunctival erosion over the tube, infection, vision loss and need for additional surgery), the decision was made to discontinue scleral lens wear in the left eye. Alternative options included refitting into a hybrid lens, fitting a scleral lens with a custom...
Conjunctival scarring and recession caused by previous retinal surgery may decrease the likelihood of successful filtration surgery, even with the adjunctive use of an antimetabolite.14 Cyclodestructive procedures have often been used in this clinical setting. However, because cyclodestructive procedures ...
inclusion cysts and filtration blebs. Options to limit or avoid interaction with conjunctival elevations/obstacles include adjusting the diameter of the scleral lens, adding a notch to the edge of the lens, adding a focal area of increased elevation to the edge of the lens, using corneoscleral ...
(n = 13) and ex vivo retinal explant models for retinal flat mounts (n = 8, detailed below). Male New Zealand White (NZW) rabbit strains weighing 1.9–2.2 kg (n = 3) were used to evaluate the scleral penetration of DiO-labelled EV via subconjunctival injection (detailed ...
Intraocular injection of albumin (MW 40 kDa) into the suprachoroidal space resulted in its passage out of the eye through the sclera (Bill, Arch. Ophthalmol. 74:248-52, 1965). Similar results were achieved after subconjunctival injection of dextran (MW 70 kDa), albumin (MW 69 kDa), and...
Therefore, the overall objective of this dissertation project was to study two important aspects of retinal drug delivery, (a) peptide transporter targeted ganciclovir prodrug approach (b) subconjunctival injection, an episcleral route of administration.Kansara, Viral...

Westcott scissors were used to create a conjunctival peritomy in proportion to the anticipated circumference of the buckle, and the appropriate rectus muscle(s) were isolated. In conjunction with the noncontact viewing system of the operating microscope, a light pipe or chandelier via a trocar-cannu...
