Endotoxin contamination was detected in water sources that routinely come in contact with LASIK instruments. Endotoxins were capable of inducing interface inflammation in a rabbit model and may therefore be a significant factor in epidemic DLK.
Combined viscocanalostomy, cataract extraction, and IOL implantation was safe and efficacious in lowering IOP whether a shared scleral incision or a separate clear corneal incision was used for phacoemulsification.
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.
