INDICATIONS: The AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® Posterior Chamber Intraocular Lens (IOL) of Ophthalmology is intended for primary implantation for the visual correction of aphakia secondary to removal of a cataractous lens in adult patients with and without presbyopia, who magazine at the offi ce? desire near, intermediate and distance vision with increased spectacle indepen- dence. The lens is intended to be placed in the capsular bag. No problem! WARNINGS/PRECAUTIONS: Careful preoperative evaluation and sound clinical judgment should be used by the surgeon to decide the risk/benefit ratio before implanting a lens in a patient with any of the conditions described in the Directions for Use labeling. Physicians should target emmetropia, and ensure that IOL centra- tion is achieved. Care should be taken to remove viscoelastic from the eye at the close of surgery. Some patients may experience visual dis- turbances and/or discomfort due to multi- focality, especially under dim light condi- tions. As with other multifocal IOLs, visual symptoms may be significant enough that the patient will request explant of the mul- tifocal IOL. Spectacle independence rates vary with all multifocal IOLs; as such, some patients may need glasses when reading small print or looking at small objects. Clinical studies with the AcrySof® ReSTOR® lens indicated that posterior capsule opaci- fication (PCO), when present, developed earlier into clinically significant PCO. Prior to surgery, physicians should provide pro- spective patients with a copy of the Patient Information Brochure available from Alcon for this product informing them of possible risks and benefits associated with the AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® IOLs. Studies have shown that color vision discrimination is not adversely affected in individuals with the AcrySof® Natural IOL and normal color vision. The effect on vision of the AcrySof® Natural IOL in subjects with hereditary color vision defects and acquired color vision defects secondary to ocular disease (e.g., glauco- ma, diabetic retinopathy, chronic uveitis, and other retinal or optic nerve diseases) has not been studied.

  • Trk Receptor Tropomyosin Related Kinase Receptor
    Trk Receptor Tropomyosin related kinase receptor Trk receptors are a family of three receptor tyrosine kinases (TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC), each of which can be activated by one or more of four neurotrophins-nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophins 3 and 4 (NT3 and NT4). TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC are transmembrane proteins that comprise the TRK receptor family. These receptor tyrosine kinases are expressed in human neuronal tissue, and play an essential role in both the physiology of development and function of the nervous system through activation by neurotrophins (NTs). The latter are specific ligands known as NGF for TrkA, BDGF, and NT-4/5 for TrkB and NT3 for TrkC, respectively. The binding of the ligand to the receptor triggers the oligomerisation of the receptors and phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues in the intracytoplasmic kinase domain. This event results into the activation of signal transduction pathways leading to proliferation, differentiation and survival in normal and neoplastic neuronal cells. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 Trk Receptor Inhibitors, Agonists, Activators & Antagonists 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone Altiratinib Cat.
