The seal between the TKP and cornea is established at the horizontal interface between the TKP flange and the anterior corneal surface, not between the corneal stroma and TKP trunk. The Landers wide-field TKP is a reusable model that provides a clear posterior-segment view and effectively forms a watertight eye at a sustained intraocular pressure of 100 mmHg. This TKP may be used in ocular trauma where the corneal defect is up to 0.8 mm greater in diameter than the 7.2-mm TKP trunk.
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.
