Comparison of eye protection with methylcellulose an paraffin ointments during general anaesthesia.
    Canadian Anaesthetists' Society journal, 1981, Volume: 28, Issue:6

    A total of 120 patients who were all anaesthetized for more than 90 minutes were given eye protection with paraffin-based oculentum simplex, Ph. Nord. 63, in one eye, and water-based four per cent methylcellulose in the other. Anaesthesia was conducted with halothane, or thiopentone an meperidine, or by a neurolept technique. Peri-ocular oedema and reaction in the conjunctiva resembling conjunctivitis was less pronounced after methylcellulose. When both paraffin-based ointment and halothane anaesthesia were used, there were signs of drug interaction, as the patients' conjunctivae were now distinctly red. In all three types of anaesthesia, methylcellulose produces a firm gluing of the eyelids with the result that the eye is not dried out and the eye is protected mechanically so that foreign bodies and corneal abrasions are avoided. There were no untoward effects of methylcellulose. It is concluded that methylcellulose four per cent provides better eye protection than paraffin during general anaesthesia.

Protection of the eyes with ophthalmic ointments during general anaesthesia.
    Acta ophthalmologica, 1981, Volume: 59, Issue:3

    In a double blind trial 47 anaesthetized patients were given eye protection with the paraffin-based neutral eye ointment Ph. Nord. 63 in one eye and the water-based Methyl cellulose (MC) 4% in the other. Twenty-four hours later the eyes were vital-stained with rose bengal/fluorescein. No unintended effects of the ointments were found and no injury to the eyes were seen. Compared with the paraffin-based ointment the MC ointment produced a more firm adhesion of the eyelids. A water-based 4% MC ointment is therefore as alternative to the fat-based neutral eye ointment.

Preparation and evaluation of piroxicam-HPMCAS solid dispersions for ocular use.
    Pharmaceutical development and technology, 2008, Volume: 13, Issue:6

    The aim of the study was in vitro evaluation of piroxicam solid dispersions containing hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS-LF, -HF) as a carrier. Binary (piroxicam-HPMCAS) and ternary (piroxicam-HPMCAS-Carbopol 940) solid dispersions were prepared by spray-drying method. The morphological characteristics were investigated by scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry were employed to study physical and chemical properties. In vitro release was studied using a flow-through cell technique. Studies of dissolution rate of piroxicam from solid dispersions were carried out in comparison with corresponding physical mixtures and drug alone. The dissolution profiles depend on the presence of Carbopol 940 in solid dispersions.

Is 2% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose a safe solution for intraoperative clinical applications?
    Journal of cataract and refractive surgery, 1986, Volume: 12, Issue:6

    We examined 2% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose prepared for clinical intraocular surgical procedures in various laboratories. Each sample contained a variety of particulate debris of botanical origin, although in varying amounts. The identified material was also seen in a sample of the raw material from which all the clinical material had been prepared. Our conclusion is that filtration methods, which are the physical methods used to purify the product, are at worst ineffective and at best inadequate. Until proper laboratory and clinical studies confirm an acceptable level of adverse reactions, we recommend that this material not be used clinically.

Soluble artifical tear inserts.
    Archives of ophthalmology (Chicago, Ill. : 1960), 1977, Volume: 95, Issue:2

    This article reports a new concept in the treatment of tear film abnormalities. Solubilization of an artifical tear insert provides a continuous flow of polymer into the tear film in place of intermittent drop therapy. The physiochemical properties of succinylated collagen were studied in vitro and compared favorably with presently available tear substitutes. The use of this polymer as a solid solubilizable insert was evaluated in normal patients. It was found to be comfortable, resulted in no blurring of vision, and prolonged the tear film breakup time.
