BACKGROUND: Opioids continue to remain the primary analgesics in children undergoing ophthalmic surgery, and their use may be associated with adverse effects like vomiting and respiratory depression. Topical anesthesia avoids these adverse effects ... Read more...
Prediction of proliferative diabetic retinopathy with hemoglobin level.
