Temporary management of involutional entropion with octyl-2-cyanoacrylate liquid bandage application.
PURPOSE To evaluate the use of octyl-2-cyanoacrylate liquid bandage (Band-Aid liquid, Ethicon, Johnson & Johnson, New Jersey, USA) as a temporary treatment in patients awaiting surgical repair for involutional entropion. METHODS Thirteen patients (15 eyelids) with involutional entropion were evaluated while they waited for surgical intervention. The lids were repositioned by the application o...
متن کاملInterventions for involutional lower lid entropion.
BACKGROUND Entropion is a condition in which the eyelid margin turns in against the eyeball. The involutional or senile type of entropion is one of the most common lower lid malpositions in the elderly. The interventions described and currently used for the treatment of this condition are surgical in nature, although non-surgical temporary medical treatment for the early stages of entropion has...
متن کاملComparison of Tensile Strength of Fibrin Glue, 2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate, Liquid Ocular Bandage, and Conventional Nylon 10-0 Sutures in Corneal Laceration Repair in an Animal Model
Objective: To compare the tensile strength of fibrin glue, 2-octyl cyanoacrylate, and liquid ocular bandage to conventional nylon 10-0 sutures in sealing central linear corneal lacerations. Methods: An experimental in-vitro study was performed on 74 porcine eyes. A 27-gauge needle connected to an infusion system with balanced salt solution was inserted into the anterior chamber and the bottle h...
متن کاملApplication of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate for corneal perforation and glaucoma filtering bleb leak
BACKGROUND This paper reports on the efficacy of a tissue adhesive, 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate, in the treatment of corneal perforation and glaucoma filtering bleb leak. METHODS Two eyes from two patients with corneal perforation or laceration and two eyes from two patients with bleb leak were included. The patients underwent application of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate onto the perforated or leaking site...
متن کاملAmphiphilic copolymers for liquid bandage application studies.
This research pertains to a new class of liquid bandage polymers which are promising for assisting advanced wound healing by serving as substrates to promote cell viability and proliferation. Amphiphilic nitrogen-containing polymer poly (3-methacryloyloxypropyltris (trimethylsiloxy)silane-co-N-isopropylacrylamide) (poly (TRIS-co-NIPAM)) was synthesized and investigated with further comparison t...
