Einsatz von Mitomycin C bei Trabekulektomien mit reduzierter Prognose

1999

Der Antimetabolit Mitomycin C wird bei Trabekulektomien mit erhohtem Vernarbungsrisiko intraoperativ appliziert. Als Risikofaktoren fur eine Sickerkissenvernarbung durfen ein Patientenalter unter 40 Jahren, vorangegangene Entzundungen, eine durch Voroperationen oder durch langjahrige antiglaukomatose Therapie beeintrachtigte Bindehaut und eine starke Pigmentierung angesehen werden.

Prävention des früh-postoperativen IOD-Anstiegs nach Phakoemulsifikation

2001

Purpose. To compare the ocular hypotensive effect of different antiglaucomatous eye drops. Patients and methods. This double-blind, randomized study included 119 eyes of 119 patients without other ocular pathology undergoing standardized (one surgeon, Healon) small incision cataract surgery with foldable intraocular lens implantation.The patients were assigned to one of five groups: group 1:0.25% timolol in Gelrite (extended efficacy, n=23); group 2: 2% dorzolamide (n=24); group 3: combination of 0.5% timolol plus 2% dorzolamide (n=22); group 4: brimonidine (n=26); group 5: gentamicin (control, n=24). Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured preoperatively and at 3±1,6±1,9±1,24±3, and 48±3 h…

Vacuoles in the Acrysof<sup>TM</sup> Intraocular Lens as Factor of the Presence of Serum in Aqueous Humor

2001

<i>Objective:</i> Acrysof™ (Alcon) foldable lenses (IOLs) have been shown to be highly biocompatible and exhibit a low incidence of posterior capsular opacification. However, minute vacuoles or ‘glistenings’ have been observed in some Acrysof IOLs. The clinical relevance of vacuole formation is presently unclear. To help clarify the influence of factors present under in vivo conditions on vacuole formation, the present experimental study examines the influence of aqueous humor components on the occurrence of vacuoles in Acrysof IOLs. <i>Methods:</i> A total of 12 sterile Acrysof IOLs (Alcon, MA60BM) were incubated at body temperature (37°C) for 3 or 6 months in anter…
