A cross-linked hyaluronic acid hydrogel (Healaflow(®)) as a novel vitreous substitute.
(2016) In Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology- Abstract
- Vitrectomy requires the substitution of the natural vitreous, as well as tamponading of retinal breaks. Clinically available alternatives such as gas and silicone oil have side effects such as inflammation, secondary glaucoma, cataract, and a need for head posturing. In this study, a hydrogel of cross-linked sodium hyaluronic acid (Healaflow(®)) is evaluated for use as a novel vitreous substitute.
