Alterations in tear biochemistry associated with postanesthetic chronic dry eye syndrome

Abstract: Perioperative dry eye syndrome (DES) is a common ocular complication of long-term general anesthesia. Chronic DES can lead to permanent damage to the cornea and disturbance of visual function, up to total loss of vision. Here, a relationship between the duration of general anesthesia and the risk of chronic DES in patients was demonstrated. Using an experimental model of perioperative corneal abrasions in rabbits, it was found that introduction of animals to 3-h general anesthesia resulted in clinically signif… Show more

“…A rabbit model of anesthesia-induced DES developed in our previous studies [ 6 , 39 ] was selected for further trialing of the antioxidant therapy using SkQ1 eye drops. In order to characterize the basic parameters of the model, we determined the incidence of DES symptoms in rabbits depending on the duration of general anesthesia.…”

“…Overall, by the end of 3–6 h general anesthesia, the full-scaled pathomorphological picture of DES was developed in the majority of the animals. Considering that exposure to anesthesia of similar duration reduces tear secretion significantly [ 6 ], the condition developed after 6 h narcosis was recognized as a model of severe DES, which is feasible for the proper trialing of the proposed antioxidant therapy.…”

“…The total antioxidant activity in AH was analyzed via hemoglobin/H 2 O 2 /luminol system, as described in our previous works [68][69][70]. Briefly, the AH samples were diluted 200-fold with PBS and added to the reaction mixture, containing 0.01 mm luminol and 0.5 mm hemoglobin.…”
