ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate whether topical hypothermia circumstance has the protective effects to the blood-ocular barriers during intraocular operations.Methods:Twenty New Zealand albino rabbits accepted vitrectomy in both eyes,useing hypothermal(4-10℃) intraocular irrigating solution in left eye(hypothermal intraocular irrigating solution group),and useing room temperature(25℃) intraocular irrigating solution in right eye(room temperature intraocular irrigating solution group)during the vitrectomy.Twenty-four hours after the operation,the retina of both eyes were checked;each eye accepted cavum vitreum perforation,and 0.5 ml of intraocular fluid were aspirsted for biochemical detection as well;as well as the retinas cut off for transmission electron microscopical(TEM) observations. Results:Inflammatory reaction of anterior ocular and the uvea in left eyes were generally slighter than the right eyes;dioptric media clarity of left eyes were also better than that in left eyes;average total protein concentration of the intraocular fluid was obviously lower than that in left eye(P
