lidocaine and Pterygium

lidocaine has been researched along with Pterygium in 7 studies

Lidocaine: A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.
lidocaine : The monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of N,N-diethylglycine with 2,6-dimethylaniline.

Pterygium: An abnormal triangular fold of membrane in the interpalpebral fissure, extending from the conjunctiva to the cornea, being immovably united to the cornea at its apex, firmly attached to the sclera throughout its middle portion, and merged with the conjunctiva at its base. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We demonstrated that the use of lidocaine gel at concentrations of 2% and 5% in pterygium surgery was as effective as subconjunctival injection of lidocaine in reducing intraoperative and postoperative pain, producing significantly less pain during initial administration of the anesthetic."9.27Pilot Study Comparing Topical Anesthetic Agents in Pterygium Surgery: Subconjunctival Injection Versus 2% Lidocaine Gel Versus 5% Lidocaine Gel. ( Farah, ME; Hofling-Lima, AL; Lima, AAS; Pereira, F; Rodrigues, EB; Shiroma, HF; Urias, MG; Yamada, VH, 2018)

( Cheng, LL; Lam, DS; Lam, PT; Lau, TT; Leung, GY; Young, AL, 2009)
"The aim of the current study is to investigate the efficacy of lidocaine 2% gel for the control of pain experienced after pterygium surgery."9.12Pain relief after pterygium surgery with viscous lidocaine. ( Oksuz, H; Tamer, C, 2006)
"In light of these results, we conclude that topical administration of lidocaine 2% gel can be used as an alternative method of anaesthesia in pterygium surgery, especially for patients with needle phobia."9.11Efficacy of lidocaine 2% gel in pterygium surgery. ( Oksuz, H; Tamer, C, 2005)
