A method for recording vitreoretinal relationships.

Abstract

A method for recording vitreoretinal relationships is described. The system includes designations for the extent and height of posterior hyaloid detachment and for sites of abnormal vitreoretinal adhesions. The method may be used for preoperative evaluation of eyes prior to vitrectomy surgery or for the follow-up of patients with vitreoretinal disease.

Uses and complications of mitomycin C in ophthalmology.

Mitomycin C is a chemotherapeutic agent that acts by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Its use and application in ophthalmology has been increasing in recent years because of its modulatory effects on wound healing. Current applications include pterygium surgery, glaucoma surgery, corneal refractive surgery, cicatricial eye disease, conjunctival neoplasia and allergic eye disease. Although it has been used successfully in these conditions, it has also been associated with significant complications. This article reviews the current trends and uses of mitomycin C in the eye and its reported complications.
