Diffuse lamellar keratitis associated with carboxymethylcellulose sodium 1% after laser in situ keratomileusis.
To investigate the association between the use of carboxymethylcellulose sodium 1% (Celluvisc) (Allergan, Inc.) during laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and the development of diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK).. Outpatient surgery center, Detroit, Michigan, USA.. In this retrospective case series, the postoperative clinical course and surgical outcomes in 30 eyes of 15 consecutive patients who had LASIK with the use of Celluvisc were reviewed. All patients had primary LASIK, and the incidence and severity of DLK were analyzed.. Diffuse lamellar keratitis developed in 24 of the 30 eyes (80.0%) in which Celluvisc was used before the keratectomy (P = <.0001, Fischer exact test). Sixteen eyes (66.7%) had stage 1, and 8 (33.3%) had stage 2. Diffuse lamellar keratitis was diagnosed in most cases (91.6%) on postoperative day 1. All inflammation resolved after treatment with intense topical corticosteroids.. Celluvisc used immediately before the keratectomy in LASIK was highly associated with the development of DLK.

[Anaphylaxis caused by carboxymethylcellulose: report of 2 cases of shock from injectable corticoids].
Two cases of anaphylactic shock are reported, occurring after intra-articular injections of corticosteroids, containing carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), benzylic acid, polysorbate 80, and merthiolate. Skin tests and leukocyte histamine release are positive to CMC and negative to the other substances including the corticosteroids: prednisolone acetate and cortivazol . No cross-reactivity with hydroxypropylcellulose was demonstrated. These tests lead to incriminate CMC in these patients. Anaphylaxis to CMC seems exceptional, though CMC is widely used in agro-alimentary and pharmaceutical industries, as well as hydroxypropylcellulose. In one case, the possibility of a sensitization by CMC as a food additive is discussed, insofar as the patient has a fixed eruption which has been suspected to be owed to intolerance to food additives.
