## Abstract Rabbit (dark irides and albino) and human corneas were excised and mounted in a Luciteยฎ chamber in order to determine the permeability of cyclophosphamideโ^14^C and to identify its metabolites. The chromatographic scans obtained from the developed thinโlayer plates showed only one peak

โฆ Synopsis
Ketoconazole, acetyl-dichlorophenyl-imidazole, when administered topically to the eyes of normal New Zealand white rabbits in concentrations of 1%, 3~ and 5~ in arachis oil has been shown to have no toxic effect to the conjunctival and corneal epithelium of these animals. No toxic effects were also noted on the iris sphincter and the crystalline lens of these animals. Five per cent ketoconazole in arachis oil showed some minimal conjunctival hyperaemia in two of the test eyes (33.3~ after two weeks of continuous administration. Arachis oil, the carrier for the test drug showed no ocular toxicity in all the rabbits tested.

Stainless steel wire, dia. 50 microns, was used as suturing material in rabbit corneas for periods of 1.5, 3 and 7 months respectively, in order to test its inertness and acceptance by the corneal tissue. One clinical case of stainless steel wire used for fixation of an I.O.L.-implantation, after a
To evaluate whether or not the corneal micropocket implantation is effective for determining the toxicity of polymeric materials, currently used biodegradable polymers such as poly(1actic acid) (PLA), poly(glycolic acid) (PGA), LA-GA copolymers, and three kinds of poly(2-cyano-acry1ate)s (PCA) were
## Abstract ## Background and Objective We analyzed the in vivo ocular response to corneal incisions made by Medical Free Electron Laser (MFEL) as a function of scan rate and incision depth. Additionally, we compared biomicroscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and light microscopy as ocular
