purpose : to evaluate corneal visco-elasticity and intraocular pressure (iop) changes measured by an ocular response analyzer (ora) after scleral buckling methods : fifty-six eyes with history of scleral buckling surgery three months ago were included in the study. corneal hysteresis (ch), corneal resistance factor (crf), corneal-compensated iop (iopcc) and goldmann-correlated iop (iopg) were m...

PURPOSE To compare combined viscocanalostomy-trabeculectomy (VISCO-TRAB) to trabeculectomy (TRAB) for the management of advanced glaucoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study cohort comprised of 18 subjects with bilateral advanced glaucoma who underwent VISCO-TRAB surgery (VISCO-TRAB group) in the right eye and TRAB (TRAB group) in the left eye. VISCO-TRAB constituted lamellar scleral flap, deep ...

The role of non-covalent interactions in the formation of visco-elastic material from zein was investigated. Hydrophobic interactions were evaluated through the addition of various salts from the Hofmeister series. Urea, ethanol, and beta mercaptoethanol (β-ME) were used to evaluate the effects of protein denaturation and disulfide bonds on zein's ability to form a visco-elastic material. The a...

VISCO is a novel visual extension to the texbased SALIERI Language. VISCO makes it possible to use the SALIERI System for creating nearly any kind of score level or real-time music applications with integrated graphical user interfaces. The visual control elements and environments can be created and controlled with the integrated, interactive, GUI based VISCO Browser, from within running SALIER...

Purpose: To evaluate corneal visco-elasticity and intraocular pressure (IOP) changes measured by an Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) after scleral buckling Methods: Fifty-six eyes with history of scleral buckling surgery three months ago were included in the study. Corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) and Goldmann-correlated IOP (IOPg) were mea...

In order to assess the efficacy of hypromellose as a viscoelastic substance in cataract surgery with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, we studied a series of 88 cases who underwent surgery with either alternate use of a viscoelastic substance (hypromellose, 39 patients, or sodium hyaluronate, 5 patients) or air (44 patients) in the anterior chamber. Endothelial cell loss was leas...

PURPOSE This in vitro study sought to compare the antifungal activity of melaleuca alternifolia oil and fluconazole mixed with a tissue conditioner. MATERIALS AND METHODS By testing several concentrations of fluconazole and melaleuca oil in Visco-gel, the minimum most effective concentration of each antifungal agent against Candida albicans was determined. Mean inhibition diameter (MID) was u...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background : the aim of this study was to determine the correlation between corneal hysteresis (ch) and the corneal resistance factor (crf), which are both novel methods of analyzing ocular rigidity/elasticity, and various corneal characteristics, mainly corneal volume in normal subjects. methods : this cross-sectional study included 500 normal eyes...

in this study, forced-vibration analysis of a coupled system of single layered graphene sheets (slgss) subjected to the moving nano-particle is carried out based on nonlocal elasticity theory of orthotropic plate. two slgss are coupled with elastic medium which is simulated by pasternak and visco-pasternak models. using hamilton’s principle, governing differential equations of motion are derive...
