Novel Vitreous Substitutes in Animal and Human Models: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
Introduction Vitreous substitutes are crucial adjuncts during vitreoretinal surgery for retinal detachment, macular holes, and vitreous hemorrhage. However, current vitreous substitutes pose limitations, including but not limited to their postoperative decrease in visual sharpness, nonfavorable refractive indices, and complications such as glaucoma ...

Citrobacter koseri: A Cause of Silicone Oil Related Endophthalmitis after Post Pars Plana Vitrectomy
Purpose. We present a rare case of Citrobacter koseri culture‐positive endophthalmitis in a postvitrectomy silicone oil‐filled eye. Case report. A 64‐year‐old male patient presented to our ophthalmology emergency room with representative symptoms of acute endophthalmitis. He underwent a plana vitrectomy oil‐filled tamponade previously. Preoperative and

Physiologically Responsive Polyurethanes for Tissue Repair and Regeneration
Polyurethanes that are sensitive to biological signals or pathological abnormalities can change their physiochemical features to improve therapy efficacy and thus can act as a smart therapeutic platform. This review introduces the fabrication strategies of several physiologically responsive polyurethanes, followed by a discussion of their applications ...
