Recomendaciones de consenso sobre endotamponadas oculares que contienen PFAS
Resumen
Se desarrollaron recomendaciones para sustancias per- y polifluoroalquiladas (PFAS) en endotamponadas oculares (OE). Las OE que contienen PFAS son cruciales en la cirugía vitreorretiniana, pero su uso debe minimizarse siempre que sea posible.
Sus antecedentes:
- Las sustancias per- y polifluoroalquiladas (PFAS) se utilizan en las endotamponadas oculares (OE).
- Las regulaciones de la Unión Europea proponen restricciones sobre las PFAS.
- La cirugía vitreorretiniana se basa en propiedades específicas de las OE.
Conclusiones:
- Las recomendaciones promueven prácticas quirúrgicas sostenibles.
- El equilibrio entre la necesidad quirúrgica y las preocupaciones medioambientales es clave.

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
1.0K
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.

Ophthalmic Drug Delivery Systems
61
Ophthalmic drug delivery faces major limitations due to poor absorption across the corneal membrane. This process is primarily driven by diffusion and is influenced by two main factors: the physicochemical properties of the drug and tear drainage. Most ophthalmic drugs, such as pilocarpine, epinephrine, atropine, and local anesthetics, are weak bases. They are typically formulated at an acidic pH to enhance chemical stability. However, this leads to high ionization, reducing their ability to...
