Unusual complication associated with a subconjunctival injection of Soframycin.

Systemic absorption of Soframycin after subconjunctival injection.

Intracameral injections of framycetin sulphate (Soframycin) in fulminating corneal infections. A clinical trial.

The impermeability of the blood-aqueous barrier to certain antibiotics precludes their use in intraocular infections, and it is very difficult to identify the causative organism if laboratory facilities are not available. With these limitations in view we embarked upon a blanket trial of framycetin sulphate (Soframycin eye drops o 5 per cent.) by intracameral injection in nine cases of intracta...

Subconjunctival administration of soframycin in the treatment of corneal infections.

THE properties of Soframycin, an antibiotic extracted from the mould Streptomyces decaris, were first evaluated by Massenat-Derouche (1954). Its properties in relation to the eye and its effect upon experimentally produced corneal infections were described by Ainslie and Henderson (1958). It was found to be especially effective against staphylococcal infections but was active too against many G...

Comparison of topical and subconjunctival anesthesia in intravitreal injection administrations.

PURPOSE To compare the effectiveness of topical and subconjunctival anesthesia in intravitreal injection administrations. METHODS Twenty-eight patients from a university clinic with bilateral diabetic macular edema were prospectively randomized to receive intravitreal injection of 4 mg triamcinolone under topical anesthesia for one eye and subconjunctival anesthesia for the other eye by using...
