[Fibrin deposits on the surface modified PMMA IOLs]
Nippon Ganka Gakkai Zasshi
|January 1, 1989
Fibrin reaction and fibrin deposits on the surface of intraocular lens (IOL) after implantation were studied experimentally in vitro and in vivo, using various surface-modified PMMA IOLs. PEO-coated PMMA IOLs and heparinized PEO-coated PMMA IOLs prevented deposition of fibrin. The results suggested these IOLs would be useful to prevent accumulation of fibrin deposits.
