Regional anesthesia for ophthalmologic surgery

Regional anesthesia for ophthalmologic surgery is a procedural indication rather than an intrinsic disease or medical condition, referring to the targeted pharmacological desensitization and motor blockade of ocular and periocular structures for surgical interventions Clinically, it is defined by the induction of profound intraoperative analgesia, globe and eyelid akinesia to eliminate involuntary movement, and stabilization of intraocular pressure, typically accomplished through retrobulbar, pe...
