| Abstract: | AIM: A restrospective study was carried in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retrobulbar anaesthesia during keratoplasty. METHODS: Of 250 consecutive keratoplasty, 30 (12%) were performed under retrobulbar anaesthesia. Patients received a mean volume of 12 ml, composed of etidocaine (2/3), bupicaine (1/3) and hyaluronidase. Ocular compression duration was at least 20 minutes. RESULTS: Surgery was found painless by 90% of patients. Akinesia was complete in 80% of cases. CONCLUSION: Theses results demonstrate that retrobulbar anaesthesia may be recommended to this type of surgery. |
