pubmed:abstractText |
An increasing number of cases are being recognized in which a periocular anesthetic for cataract surgery has been inadvertently injected directly into the globe under high pressure until the globe ruptures or "explodes." The objectives of the current study were to (1) analyze this injury clinically and histopathologically through a series of seven case reports; (2) reproduce the injury experimentally in human eyebank eyes, live anesthetized rabbit eyes, and human cadaveric eyes; (3) investigate the biophysical basis of the injury; and (4) outline recommendations to help decrease the risk of ocular rupture with periocular injections. DESIGNS/PARTICIPANTS: Clinical, histopathologic, experimental animal, autopsy eye, and theoretical biophysical study.
