ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the effect of ?-cyanoacrylate on corneal perforation in rabbits.Methods:
Eighteen adult rabbits were divided into a left eye group and a right eye group.Bilateral corneas of the rabbits were perforated and subsequently occluded with ?-alkyl cyanoacrylate synthetic adhesive in the former group and by separated single points using the 10-0 polyglactin thread in the latter.The time for the obliteration of the corneal perforations and intraocular pressure(IOP) were recorded preoperatively and 3 days after the operation in both the two groups.The ocular contents of the two groups were observed by slit-lamp biomicroscopy after the operation.Results:
The mean time of the corneal perforation obliteration was shorter in the left than in the right eyes.IOP was recovered to normal within 3 days postoperatively and the ocular contents were stabilized,with no significant difference in IOP between the two groups 3 days after the operation.Conclusion:
?-Cyanoacrylate is an effective adhesive agent for corneal perforation.
