The ideal suture for use in ophthalmic surgery is one that is fine yet strong, non-irritant, and non allergic, predictably and reliably absorbed after a suitable period of time, and with good knot holding properties. Polyglactin (Vicryl) 8-0 suture, newly developed absorbable suture was used in 10 cases of cataract extractions and trabeculectomy, The results were excellent with minimal complications. comparing with ordinary 10-0 monofilament nylon or 8-0 virgin silk. |
