Two Cases of Fibrin Membrane-Induced Pupillary Block Treated With Neodymium-Doped Yttrium Aluminium Garnet (Nd:YAG) Laser After Cataract Surgery in Dogs. [PDF]
This study evaluates the clinical efficacy of Nd:YAG laser membranotomy in dogs with fibrin membrane‐induced pupillary block (FMPB). Targeted application of the Nd:YAG laser safely disrupts the obstructive pupillary membrane, thereby restoring normal aqueous humour outflow and effectively resolving secondary intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation without
