Title: Vitreous morphology after perforating injury treated by primary vitrectomy. Author: Atkinson A, Faulborn J. Journal: Trans Ophthalmol Soc U K (1962); 1978 Apr; 98(1):43-6. PubMed ID: 285508. Abstract: Perforating eye injuries result in patterns of damage which vary greatly in extent and severity. In undertaking reconstruction of the injured eye the ophthalmologist requires instruments and materials designed for handling each type of traumatized tissue. Problems associated with injury to the vitreous are logically dealt with by purpose-built vitrectomy instruments with the object of attaining a satisfactory and safe vitreous configuration in a visually useful eye.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
