  • Title: Comparison of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose 2% (Adatocel) and hyaluronic acid 1% (Healon).
    Author: Fechner PU, Rimpler M.
    Journal: J Cataract Refract Surg; 1989 Nov; 15(6):685-8. PubMed ID: 2693691.
    Abstract:
    Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose solutions (2% HPMC) were examined for impurities. There was no evidence of any particulate matter in two solutions from different sources: one prepared by a hospital pharmacy, the other industrially prepared (Adatocel). In a controlled clinical study, Adatocel was compared with Healon (1% hyaluronic acid solution). The postoperative irritation (cellular response) in the anterior chamber was the same in both groups.
