gentamicin and Myopia

gentamicin has been researched along with Myopia in 6 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

Myopia: A refractive error in which rays of light entering the EYE parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the RETINA when accommodation (ACCOMMODATION, OCULAR) is relaxed. This results from an overly curved CORNEA or from the eyeball being too long from front to back. It is also called nearsightedness.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Seventy-two chicks were allocated to one of four groups: intravitreal gentamicin (400 microg) injection (destruction of retina-RPE complex); intravitreal gentamicin injection with goggling; goggling only (form-deprivation myopia); and intravitreal saline injection (control)."3.70Influence of destruction of retina-RPE complex on the proliferation of scleral chondrocytes in chicks. ( Hung, PT; Lin, LL; Shih, YF; Sung, YS; Wang, IJ; Yu, MJ, 1998)
"The keratitis was treated with gentamicin sulfate (Garamycin) and chloramphenicol eyedrops."1.30Keratitis with loss of useful vision after photorefractive keratectomy. ( Malling, S, 1999)
