Treatment of deep corneal ulcers with porcine small intestinal submusosa using a modified surgical technique in dogs

Treatment of deep corneal ulcers using small intestinal submucosa (SIS) without corneal sutures in combination with a third eyelid flap seems a promising technical modification. Advantages are a reduction in surgery time and no additional damage of healthy corneal tissue.
