ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of the rats with optic nerve crush. Methods In this study, 24 rats with traumatic optic nerve injury were recruited. The rats'left eyes were injured in the optic nerve and the right eyes as the controls were applied with sham-operation. The rats were divided into the treatment group and the control group in accordance with the random number table. The experimental group was treated with two-course hyperbaric oxygen one hour a day, 10 days a course. The control group breathed fresh air under standard atmospheric pressure. F-VEP was detected on day 3, 10, 20 during the experiment. Results In the control group, latency of F-VEP delayed (P＜0.05) and the amplitude of P100 decreased (P＜0.05) in the injured eye compared to the normal eye. In the experimental group, no obvious difference was found in the latency of F-VEP and the amplitude of P100 in the injured eye compared to the normal eye (P＞ 0.05) . The comparison of F-VEP data of the injured eyes showed that incubation period was in advance (P＜ 0.05) and amplitude increased (P＜0.05) in the experimental group. The comparison of F-VEP data tested at different time points was statistical significant. Conclusion The rat model of optic nerve injury was successful. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy showed no interference with the F-VEP data of the injured eye by causing no damage to the normal eye and was proved effective. Longer treatment provided better results.
ABSTRACT
It is great significant for angle Kappa in refractive surgery,and it has been a consensus to adjust angle Kappa,especially in the correction of hyperopia corneal refractive surgery.The population distribution of angle Kappa is influenced by race,age,gender,eye,refractive status,ocular biometry and different precision measuring instruments,and it may also vary with the change of position or pupil size and other factors.At present,fewer researches on visual quality and treatment have been conducted in femtoseeond laser and cataract phacoemulsification combined with multifocal intraocular lens implantation in eyes with large angle Kappa,so more large sample researches are needed to perform in order to provide evidences for clinicians.
ABSTRACT
?Optic neuritis ( ON) is one of the most common causes of vision loss by neural eye diseases in youth and middle-aged. In the past, the diagnosis simply according to the risk position, which did not distinguish from the pathogenesis and clinical characteristics, can not meet the current clinical diagnosis and treatment needs. Combining with the etiology, clinical characteristics and prognosis, the latest classification of the current international diagnosis of ON are typical and atypical ON. Typical ON relates to multiple sclerosis ( MS ) or demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, it has a relatively good therapeutic effect and prognosis. Rather than, atypical ON has complex etiology, clinical manifestation, and the treatment and prognosis are also different. At present there are many international ON treatment guidelines with level I evidence-based medical evidence, but with different genetic background, geographical environment and ethnic groups, they are not been determined. China lacks of such a multicenter large sample, a wide range of research evidence. In this paper, we will summarize the progress of the diagnosis and treatment about ON, especially about the atypical ON, in order to provide some suggestions to further improve the standardization and individualization for clinical diagnosis and treatment on ON.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To observe the application efficiency of 5g/L indocyanine green ( ICG ) staining technique for continuous circular capsulorhexis ( CCC ) during phacoemulsification in white cataract. METHODS:Ninety-eight patients (98 eyes) with white cataract were randomly divided into staining group ( 50 cases, 50 eyes) and control group (48 cases, 48 eyes). The control group didn't do anterior capsule staining. The staining group was injected to fill the anterior chamber, 5g/L ICG 0.1mL was applied on the central surface of the anterior capsule, using a 27G blunt needle through the side-port after 30s, and the redundant ICG was replaced by BSS, and continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis was accomplished using capsulorhexis forceps. RESULTS: In staining group: after ICG staining, the capsule, which presented uniform light green and visualization of the anterior capsule was significantly improved. There are 48 eyes capsulorhexis success. The rate of success was 96%. Meanwhile, in control group, there was 29 eyes capsulorhexis success. The rate of success was 60%. The difference was statistically significant (P CONCLUSION:Indocyanine green staining increases the visibility of anterior capsule in over mature cataract, and it should be an effective and helpful method which can increase the success rate of capsulorehxis. At the same time, it can reduce the incidence of intraoperative complications. This will help beginners quickly grasp continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis, and shorten the learning curve.
ABSTRACT
Background Prevention and treatment of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a hot issue.To establish a PCO animal model is the basis of relevant studies.The most common methods of creating a PCO model are phacoemulsification surgery with or without intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.But the suitability of different methods is unclear.Objective This experiment was to compare the outcome between the two methods of establishing a PCO model in rabbit eyes.Methods Twenty New Zealand white rabbits were collected and randomized into 2 groups.Phacoemulsification of cataract with IOL or without IOL implantation was performed on the right eyes of rabbits in these two groups.The operative eyes were examined under the slit lamp from day 1 through 3 months after surgery.The inflammatory response was evaluated and compared between the two groups,and the extent of PCO was graded based on Odrich's criteria.The use of the animals complied with the Regulations for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission.Results The inflammatory response,including conjunctival congestion,corneal edema and aqueous flare were less severe in the model eyes with IOL implantation than the eyes without IOL implantation 1-3 days after operation.Inflammatory response gradually disappeared and showed the same degree in the PCO grade from 2 weeks through 3 months in both groups.The numbers of eyes with 1-3 grade of PCO were 8 and 9,and those with 0 grade of PCO were 2 and 1 in the with IOL implantation group and without IOL implantation group,respectively,showing a significant difference (P=0.39).PCO appeared at 1 month,extended at 2 months and formed dense fibrosis following operation.Conclusions The model outcome of phacoemulsification combined with IOL implantation is better than without IOL implantation one.It is the ideal animal model for the study of after cataract.
