Effect of topical fluoroquinolones on corneal re-epithelialization after excimer laser keratectomy

Abstract

These data suggest that both ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin influence corneal wound healing in rabbits after laser keratectomy and that their healing rates did not differ. A white precipitate that appeared in the epithelial defect area in some rabbits treated with ciprofloxacin did not prevent closure of the defect.
