A Rabbit Model Study to Determine the Efficacy of a Prototype Corneal Endothelium Protector during Cataract Surgery

Figure 3

The flow chart of the clinical course of the rabbits. There were 12 rabbits in each group. The first 6 rabbits were excluded from the result analysis due to the learning curve of the surgical procedure. ^#Another rabbit whose pupil became small intraoperatively (followed up until POD7) and ^{^}another rabbit in which the P-chute was inserted upside-down and scrapped against the corneal endothelium during the unfolding process (followed up until POD14) were also excluded from the result analysis.
