Abstract(s)
Oftalmologia é o ramo da medicina que lida com doenças do olho, o órgão da visão e
seus anexos. Os biomateriais podem ser feitos com diferentes tipos de materiais e têm a
função de substituir ou melhorar uma função ou um órgão. No caso dos biomateriais
oftálmicos, é o olho. Eles correspondem a qualquer material que possa entrar em contato
com sistemas biológicos e continuaram a melhorar ao longo dos anos e a criação de novos
biomateriais. Com a chegada das novas gerações, eles conseguiram reduzir as
complicações, reduzindo os problemas de toxicidade e melhorando as
biocompatibilidades associadas às gerações mais velhas. Com o envelhecimento da
população, os problemas oculares estão se tornando mais prevalentes, os biomateriais têm
ajudado nos últimos anos a melhorar ou restaurar a visão, melhorando a qualidade de vida
de muitos pacientes.
Esta dissertação pretende rever alguns dos biomateriais oftalmológicos mais comuns: as
lentes de contato, lentes intraoculares, lágrimas artificiais, inlays, substituições vítreas e
a cirurgia mini-invasiva no glaucoma, também chamados MIGS.
Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases of the eye, the organ of vision and its attachments. Biomaterials can be made with different types of materials and can replace or improve a function or an organ. In the case of ophthalmic biomaterials, it is the eye. They correspond to any material that come into contact with biological systems and have continued to improve over the years and the creation of new biomaterials. With the arrival of new generations, they have succeeded in reducing complications, toxicity and improving the biocompatibilities, associated with older generations. With the aging population, eye problems are becoming more prevalent, biomaterials have helped in recent years to improve or restore vision, improving the quality of life of many patients. This essay aims to review some of the most common ophthalmic biomaterials: contact lenses, intraocular lenses, artificial tears, inlays, vitreous replacements, and mini-invasive glaucoma surgery, also called MIGS.
