“…No speci c complications or complaints have been reported from patients. (10) The results of Conjunctival Cyst treatment with this method have shown that no complications were seen in patients during and after treatment. With one-day, one-week, and oneto six-month follow-up, this study has demonstrated that patients' cysts have completely healed and no recurrence observed.…”

“…Due to the multi-purpose use of this device in other treatments, it seems to have economic and practical justi cation in the long run. (10,11,15,16) Nevertheless, the present study is a case series, and to compare this method with other treatments, a clinical trial is needed. Follow-up in this study is six months.…”

“…(8, 9) Also, the effectiveness of the PANIS method in treating Conjunctivochalasis, Dry eye disease, Pinguecula and Conjunctival Cyst has been shown in human studies. (10)(11)(12)(13) In this study, for the rst time, we intend to use this method to treat patients with conjunctival concretions and examine its possible side effects as a new method.…”

Purpose: Plasma is one of the newest therapies recently used in Conjunctivochalasis, Conjunctival Cyst, and Blepharoplasty. This study aimed to evaluate a quick treatment modality of conjunctival concretions using plasma as a noninvasive procedure.Design: Six eyes of six patients with conjunctival concretions were evaluated in a clinical case series.Methods: The procedure was performed using plasma spots generated by the white handpiece of the Plexr device. The eyelid was everted and concretions sublimated by plasma spots from the upper and lower eyelids. Refractive Errors, visual acuity (BCVA and UCVA), Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), and Intraocular pressure (IOP) were measured before and after six months of the procedure.Results: The results of 6 months follow-up show that this effective method had no recurrence or side effects. Treatment was effective in all of the patients. No complication and recurrence was observed. The OSDI score was improved to the normal range. This method had no effects on Refractive Errors, Visual Acuity, and IOP. Conclusions: Based on the results, it seems that the PANIS method can be used as a practical, quick, and straightforward approach for the treatment of conjunctival concretions.

Purpose: Medical plasma application has been used in different fields recently. In this study, we assess the outcome of using plasma-assisted noninvasive surgery (PANIS) with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) in pterygium surgical treatment. Methods: This clinical case series was conducted in 4 patients with primary grades 1, 2, and 3 pterygium (Table 1). After exclusion and inclusion criteria considerations, patients underwent different examinations. Various measurements were obtained such as uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), refractive error (RE), the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and ocular surface disease index (OSDI). The surgical procedure was pterygium removal from the cornea and then AMT attached to the conjunctival borders with plasma spots using a white handpiece of Plexr device (Plexr, GMV s.r.l Grottaferrata, Italy) instead (Table 2). After postoperative follow-ups within the first week of the surgery and in 1 month and 6 months later the results were obtained. Results: All patients have been fully recovered after the surgery without any complications. In all 4 cases, UCVA, BCVA, and RE parameters have improved during 6 months after the surgical procedure. Every patients’ OSDI decreased after the surgery. Recurrence has not been seen in any cases during 6 months follow-up. Conclusion: Pterygium removal surgery using the PANIS technique with AMT is safe, effective, fast, and cost-benefit.

“…Plasma-assisted noninvasive surgery (PANIS) has been developed and used in the ophthalmic field by Nejat et al for the first time. In this therapeutic method, the atmospheric pressure low-temperature plasma (ALTP) [35] is used to treat ocular surface disorders such as conjunctival cyst [36] and conjunctivochalasis [37] and doubtless they had already assessed the safety of this method in animal models using histopathological examinations and cytokine factors assessments [38]. In the present study, the clinical efficacy of this inexpensive and simple method has been evaluated, for temporary punctal occlusion in order to treat DED.…”
