| Abstrakt: | A recent study conducted by researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore has provided new insights into cataract surgery. The study focused on a technique called "wound burping," which is used to treat intraocular pressure spikes after cataract surgery. The researchers found that burping the wound to release aqueous humor can lead to large corneal epithelial detachment, a complication that should be avoided. The study emphasizes the importance of avoiding this technique once the corneal epithelium has healed over the surgical incision. [Extracted from the article] |
