Description
The purpose of this film is to evaluate the utility of thermoreversible(poloxamer 407) hydrogels as a substitute for ophthalmic viscosurgical devices(OVDs) during phacoemulsification, and to compare their endothelial protective effect with that of hyaluronic acid-based OVDs during phacoemulsification in porcine and rabbit eyes. To accomplish this, we performed both in vitro and in vivo experiments and we present the results in this video.
