Abstract

The study is aimed to modifying the method of a two-component fibrin glue production, as well as studying the possibility of applying glue fixation of the amniotic membrane to the stroma of the cornea, in comparison with interrupted sutures. An experimental study allowed us to determine the optimal composition of the first (base) and second (activating) components, to modify the method for fibrin glue production, and also to test in vivo in six Chinchilla rabbits the fixation of the amniotic membrane using the proposed protocol. The resulting fibrin glue allows not only to securely fix the amniotic membrane to the stroma of the cornea, to reduce the time of the procedure, but also to create conditions for an earlier onset of epithelization while maintaining the transparency of the cornea compared to suture fixation.
