Abstract
- Effects of implantation of fresh and stored vitreous were studied on albino rabbits. Auto-and bomo- implantations of fresh vitreous were performed in sixty eyes, and course was followed up to one month after implantation operation. Of these, thirteen eyes were discarded because of bleeding into vitreous cavities and contamination of vitreous by blood. In remaining forty-seven eyes, vitreous became clear after ten days. Intraocular pressure which had been low daring the first few days, normalized within this period of time. No complication was observed. Implantation of homologous vitreous which had been stored in frozen state for one to three months, resulted in clear vitreous in eight out of ten eyes operated. Bleeding and blood contamination occurred in two eyes. From the results, it can be concluded that vitreous implantation is relatively safe and effective procedure.
