Do artificial eye amplitudes and characteristics in enucleated socket with porous polyethylene spherical and quad-motility implant?
The similar amplitude of movement of artificial eyes was observed with both spherical and quad-motility orbital implants. Artificial eyes fit with quad-motility orbital implant are significantly thicker and heavier than those fit with spherical orbital implant.
More attention and research needs to be devoted to the prevention of dog bites. Potential prevention strategies include: educational programs on canine behavior, especially directed at children; laws for regulating dangerous or vicious dogs; enhanced animal control programs; and educational programs regarding responsible dog ownership and training. Unfortunately, the relative or absolute effectiveness of any of these strategies has not been assessed. Continuing surveillance for dog bites will be needed if we are to better understand how to reduce the incidence of dog bites and evaluate prevention efforts.
