Patents Assigned to Aspen Biomedical Research, LLC
  • Publication number: 20110229452
    Abstract: An ophthalmic irrigating solution containing hyaluronidase and an antioxidant is provided. The solution prevents a post-operative intraocular pressure rise when used during an ophthalmic surgical procedure, and also protects corneal endothelial cells. A method for preventing post-operative intraocular pressure increases in an eye during ophthalmic surgery involves irrigating an anterior chamber of the eye with an ophthalmic solution containing hyaluronidase and an antioxidant. Kits containing hyaluronidase and base medium solutions are also provided. The kits are designed such that the hyaluronidase and base medium solution are combined and administered together to an eye of a patient during or following an ophthalmic surgical procedure, such as cataract surgery, intraocular lens surgery, corneal transplant surgery, or glaucoma surgery. Administration of the components of the kit prevents an increase in post-operative intraocular pressure and also protects corneal endothelial cells.
