A comparison of visual outcome in open-globe repair: succinylcholine with D-tubocurarine vs nondepolarizing agents.
We compared the visual outcome in patients with ocular perforations who received succinylcholine with d-tubocurarine during anesthesia induction, with the visual outcome of those who did not. No statistically significant differences in visual outcome were detected. No extrusion of intraocular contents occurred during induction in either group.
