Preventing conjunctival autograft inversion in pterygium surgery [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2006
Surgeon-dependent variables influencing pterygium surgical outcome using the conjunctival autograft technique include conjunctival retraction as a consequence of subepithelial contracting fibrous tissue, and autograft inversion causing necrosis and sloughing of the graft.A simple and useful technique of pterygium excision is described, which helps to ...

A Facile Strategy to Restore the Optic Nerve Functionality Using an Injectable Conducting Hydrogel

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 21, June 5, 2025.
An injectable conductive polymer hydrogel from poly (3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) is developed to facilitate the recovery of electrophysiological function in injured optic nerve. The hydrogel can be injected directly at the injury site and spontaneously gel in place.
