OBJECTIVE
To examine the inhibitory effects of tranilast, ketotifen fumarate, and disodium cromoglycate which are used clinically as anti-allergic agents, on the growth of bovine lens epithelial cells (LE) in culture.
METHODS
LE was grown in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium(DMEM) with 10% fetal
OBJECTIVE
To demonstrate the usefulness of contact lens induced conjunctivitis as a model of human ocular inflammation and to evaluate the effect of antiallergic eyedrops on this model.
METHODS
We recruited 40 subjects with contact lens induced conjunctivitis. Half were treated with ketorolac
Olopatadine HCl is an anti-allergic drug used for the management of allergic conjunctivitis. Currently, it is delivered via eye drop solution, which is highly inefficient due to low bioavailability. Silicone contact lenses can be used to sustain the release of ophthalmic drugs. However, the presence
A double-masked study was performed to investigate a possible side effect of the antiallergic substance Picumast dihydrochloride on lens transparency. 372 patients with Picumast dihydrochloride- or Ketotifen-treatment regularly underwent ophthalmologic examinations and Scheimpflug photography of the
OBJECTIVE
We evaluated the adsorption of levocabastine (LEV) eye drops onto soft contact lenses in rabbit eyes to confirm the safety of this antihistaminic and antiallergic agent.
METHODS
Low- and high- water-content soft contact lenses were placed on the eyes of three rabbits for each type of soft
OBJECTIVE
The efficacy of Patanol, a topically applied anti-allergic agent, was evaluated in a group of patients with allergic conjunctivitis due to contact lens wear (GROUP I) and a group comprised of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis patients, vernal conjunctivitis patients and atopic
Recent studies have shown that plumbagin has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antibacterial, and anti-cancer activities; however, it has not yet been shown whether plumbagin suppresses alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-induced melanin synthesis to prevent hyperpigmentation. In this
A 6-year-old Thai girl presented with itching, redness and copious discharge in both eyes. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy of the left eye revealed cobblestone papillae with marked ptosis while in the right eye only small papillae were observed. Punctuate epithelial keratitis was noted only in the left eye.
Ketotifen an anti-allergic drug delivered via eye drops has major limitations, including poor ocular bioavailability and poor patient compliance. The objective of the research work was to fabricate ketotifen loaded microemulsion laden hydrogels and silica shell nanoparticle-laden (prepared from
Chronic allergic conjunctivitis (CAC) or perennial allergic conjunctivitis (PAC) is the most frequent form of allergy of the conjunctiva that is encountered in Northern Europe, particularly in city areas. Itching, redness of the mucosa, swelling of the lids and tearing are the main symptoms.
