Comparison of Tensile Strength of Fibrin Glue,­ 2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate, Liquid Ocular Bandage, and Conventional Nylon 10-0 Sutures in Corneal Laceration Repair in an Animal Model

Comparison of Tensile Strength of Fibrin Glue,­ 2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate, Liquid Ocular Bandage, and Conventional Nylon 10-0 Sutures in Corneal Laceration Repair in an Animal Model

Objective: To compare the tensile strength of fibrin glue, 2-octyl cyanoacrylate, and liquid ocular bandage to conventional nylon 10-0 sutures in sealing central linear corneal lacerations. Methods: An experimental in-vitro study was performed on 74 porcine eyes. A 27-gauge needle connected to an...
