COMPLETED

NCT07821203

Sponsor: Philippine Eye Research Institute

The main goal of the sub-incisional pocket (SIP) is to provide a wound seal option during corneal surgery. This retrospective cohort study aims to report the efficacy and safety of SIP among eyes undergoing routine cornea surgery as well as to determine factors that could be correlated with wound seal.
