has been described in humans and many animal species. Traumatic rupture of the lens capsule may result in vision-threatening intraocular inflammation that is poorly responsive to medical management. Phthisis bulbi, persistent uveitis or glaucoma often occurs in these eyes. Surgical removal of the
A 43-year-old woman presented with a 2-month history of contact lens-associated keratitis and corneal ulceration on the left eye. Without having isolated the pathogenic agent, a calculated anti-infective and anti-inflammatory therapy had already been administered with no signs of improvement.
Visual rehabilitation after cataract surgery has been improved with the development of IOLs. These lenses are well tolerated in many uveitis patients when complete control of preoperative inflammation is achieved. However, in some patients, IOL placement after cataract extraction results in chronic
In recent years various well-controlled, prospective trials using several clinical parameters have shown nonsteroidal eye drops to be effective in treating postimplantation surgical inflammation. The efficacy of nonsteroidal drugs, however, is influenced by several factors such as the patient's race
Rat lens microsomal preparations possess the capability of converting exogenous arachidonic acid into prostaglandins (PG) E2 and F2 alpha. The low, yet measurable prostaglandin biosynthetic capacity of the lens microsomes was demonstrated by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and by separation of radiolabeled
OBJECTIVE
To retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness and describe the process of reducing hyperopia with a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent and a soft disposable contact lens in postoperative excimer laser patients with consecutive hyperopia.
METHODS
Private practice.

On the basis of the 460 cases of implant of lens, the author analyses the different types of uveal inflammatory reactions appeared during the post-operation period. These inflammations were more numerous and graver in the cases of implants with pupilar suport and of C.A. The implants of C.P.
To report a case of atypical sterile ring infiltrates during wearing soft silicone hydrogel contact lens due to poor lens care. A 29-year-old woman presented with complaints of pain, redness, and morning discharge. She was wearing soft silicone hydrogel contact lens previously; her current symptoms
An acute lens-induced necrotizing intraocular inflammation was produced in Lewis rats. Treatment of these animals by intraperitoneal injection of glutathione peroxidase resulted in marked decrease in uveal inflammation, retinal edema, hemorrhage and vasculitis. Intraperitoneal injection of
The anti-phlogistic effect of dietary vitamin E supplementation on the acute inflammation observed in experimental lens-induced uveitis in Brown Norway rats was studied. The effects of vitamin E were examined using histopathologic parameters as well as by measuring the levels of arachidonic acid
UNASSIGNED
To assess the efficacy of anti-inflammatory approaches, comprising a topical corticosteroid and omega-3 supplements, for modulating the inflammatory overlay associated with contact lens discomfort (CLD).
UNASSIGNED
This randomized controlled trial involved 72 adults with CLD, randomized
OBJECTIVE
To report a series of patients with uveitis and cataract who had undergone cataract extraction with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation and who subsequently had the intraocular lens removed because of progressive intraocular damage from inflammation.
METHODS
Review of the
OBJECTIVE
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, including sodium salicylate, inhibit extracellular bacterial biofilm production. The authors studied the effect of the addition of sodium salicylate on bacterial adherence and biofilm formation on contact lenses and cases and commonly used medical
Transferrin (Tf), the plasma iron transport protein which supports cell proliferation and differentiation and has bacteriostatic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, has been found in relatively high concentrations in the intraocular fluids. Intraocular synthesis of Tf has recently been
OBJECTIVE
To measure the inflammatory reaction in the anterior chamber after lens extraction in a rabbit model and to evaluate the effect of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or steroids on the amount of inflammation as measured by fibrinogen levels in the aqueous humor.
METHODS
Animal
