This 24-month multicenter randomized controlled trial demonstrated superior reduction in MDIOP and medication use among subjects with mild-to-moderate POAG who received a Schlemm canal microstent combined with phacoemulsification compared with phacoemulsification alone.
The porous polyethylene orbital implant represents an alternative implant for use after enucleation or evisceration or for secondary implantation. In our rabbit model, the porous polyethylene implant was well tolerated without complication. Complete fibrovascularization was first seen at 12 weeks. Porous polyethylene orbital implants appear to vascularize more slowly than Bio-Eye coralline HA, FCI(3) synthetic HA, and aluminum oxide implants.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
