چکیده
PURPOSE To describe a surgery technique for removing donor sclera tissue after corneo-scleral button excision. RESULTS The extrusion technique is easy to perform. It allows the complete scleral extraction its total clean up to be performed, as well as making easier to isolate the retina and uveal tissue. This technique could have an important role in the anatomical and morphological study of ocular structures.

Scleral support surgery for pathologic myopia.
Pathologic myopia is the seventh leading cause of blindness in the US and two percent of Americans have the disease; Canadian statistics are not available. Pathologic myopia involves elongation of the eyeball and scleral support surgery aims to control the progression of this elongation.

متن کاملStudy on establishment and mechanics application of finite element model of bovine eye
BACKGROUND Glaucoma mainly induced by increased intraocular pressure (IOP), it was believed that the pressure that wall of eyeball withstands were determined by material properties of the tissue and stereoscopic geometry of the eyeball. In order to study the pressure changes in different parts of interior eyeball wall, it is necessary to develop a novel eye ball FEM with more accurate geometry ...
متن کاملThe Deformation of Human Eyeball when undergoing Scleral Buckling
Scleral buckling is a surgical technique to treat rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Vision may be affected by the scleral buckle. Since the buckle is pushed into the sclera towards the detached retina, it may change the shape and the focal length of the eyeball. A paradigm mathematical model of human eyeball is set up to examine how the focal length of the eye is affected under the actio...

PURPOSE To compare the biomechanical properties of porcine, rabbit, and human sclera before and after riboflavin/ultraviolet-A (UVA) collagen cross-linking (CXL). METHODS Eight rabbits, 8 porcine eyeballs, and 8 human eyeballs were included. One rabbit eye and half of each bisected human and porcine eyeball were treated with riboflavin/UVA CXL. Untreated fellow rabbit eyes and eyeball halves ...
متن کاملMobility of hydroxyapatite orbital implant covered with autologous sclera.
PURPOSE To evaluate the mobility of a hydroxyapatite implant covered with autologous sclera from the enucleated globes of patients with severe atrophy of the eyeball or eyelid retraction. METHODS This implant was used in seven patients with phthisis bulbi. We measured the movement of the implant by photographic analysis of the anterior orbit and by using a strain gauge. RESULTS At 1-3 years...
