title: [An experimental study of the role of present-day suture materials in the forming of postoperative astigmatism in a penetrating corneal wound].
abstract: Tolerance of suturing materials ethylon 10/0, mersilene 11/0 (Ethycon), and nylon 10/0 (Alcon) by rabbit corneal tissue is studied. Mersilene and ethylon caused the least irritation of the eyes, while use of nylon and capron led to vascularization of cornea and rejection of the material (capron) in remote periods. Assessment of the effects of the above-listed materials on postoperative astigmatism showed that mersilene and ethylon caused a lesser astigmatism than nylon and capron.
