Study Notes
Corneal Defect Repair with Cyanoacrylate Glue
- A double drape tectonic patch with cyanoacrylate glue was used to repair corneal defects in 8 cases.
Post-Procedure Care
- A bandage contact lens (BCL) was placed in 18/21 eyes after the procedure to aid in healing.
- The BCL used was a 14-mm-diameter PureVision bandage contact lens, manufactured by Bausch and Lomb Incorporated.
Corneal Ulceration
- Recurrent ulceration occurred in 3/17 eyes, with two cases having a superficial keratectomy (SK) and complete healing, and one case being euthanized due to declining health from chronic kidney disease.
Corneal Healing Rate
- Surgical intervention can expedite corneal healing, discouraging corneal sequestrum formation.
- A study by Morgan et al. (1994) found that the time to healing of corneal ulceration was significantly shorter with surgical intervention (3.8 weeks) compared to medical therapy alone (11.2 weeks).
