Medical Sodium Hyaluronate Gel Products

Application:

- Cataract surgery and lOL implantation

The required amount of Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery is slowly infused through a needle or cannula into the anterior chamber. The protective effect of Singclean as an aid is optimized when the injection is performed prior to cataract extraction and insertion of the lOL and is effective for both intra- and extra-capsular cataract procedures. Singclean may be applied to lOL prior to insertion. Additional Singclea can be injected as required to facilitate surgical procedures.

- Corneal transplant surgery

The corneal button is removed and the anterior chamber filled with Singclean is at level with the surface of the corneal. The donor graft is then placed on top of the Singclean and sutured into place.Additional Singclean can be used as required to aid in surgical procedures.

- Glaucoma filtration surgery

Singclean is injected through a corneal paracentesis to restore and maintain anterior chamber volume during the performance of the trabeculectomy. Additional Singclean can be used as required to aid in thesurgical procedures.

Direction for Use:

First expulse the air out of the ophthalmic Luer-lock needle, then inject Singclean°appropriately into eye.Theinjected amount must be adapted to the type of surgical procedures.The administration of Singclean°shouldbe performed only by trained specialists.

The needle should fit to the syringe Luer tip (shown in figure 1); however, over tightening may cause the hubto weaken and possibly detach from the syringe.Extrusion of a test droplet is recommended prior to enteringeye, and excessive force on the plunger should be avoided.

Contraindications:

Patients with allergy background should not use Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery.

Precautions:

Overfilling the eye anterior or posterior segment with Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery may lead to increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, or other ocular damage.

Postoperative intraocular pressure may also be elevated as result of pre-existing glaucoma, compromised outflow and by operative procedure and sequel a thereto, including enzymatic zonulysis, absence of an indectomy, trauma to filtration structures, and by blood and lenticular remnants in the anterior chamber.

lt is difficult to predict the exact role of these factors in any individual case, therefore the following precautions are recommended:

·Never overfill the eye chambers with Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery (except in glaucoma surgery).

·ln posterior segment procedures in the aphakic diabetic patients, special care should be exercised to avoid using large amounts of Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery.

·Remove all remain Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery by irrigation and /or aspiration at the close of surgery (except in glaucoma surgery).

·Carefully monitor the intraocular pressure especially during the immediate postoperative period. If significant rises are observed, treat with appropriate therapy.

·On rare occasion, viscoelastic Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery containing sodium hyaluronate has been observed to become slightly opaque or to form a slight precipitated upon instillation into the eye. Should this be observed, the cloudy or precipitated material should be removed by irrigation and/or aspiration.

·Use only when material is clear.

Adverse reactions:

Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery is extremely well tolerated after injection into human eyes. A transient rise of intraocular pressure postoperatively has been reported in some cases. In posterior segment surgery intraocular pressure rise have been reported in some patients, especially in aphakic diabetics, after injection of large amounts of Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery.

Rarely, postoperative inflammatory reactions (iritis, hypopyon) as well as incidents of corneal edema and corneal decompensation have been reported. Their relationship to Singclean Viscoelastic Solution for Ophthalmic Surgery has not been established.
