Molecular and microbiological evidence of bacterial contamination of intraocular lenses commonly used in canine cataract surgery.
Inflammatory outcomes, including toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS) and infectious endophthalmitis, are potentially painful, blinding complications following cataract surgery. In an in vitro pilot study, commercially available, sterile foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs) used during routine canin...
