Cornea of Rabbit 12, sacrificed at 16 months post implantation, fixed in paraffin, H&E stain. Paraffin fixation results in dehydration of implant during processing and thus the implant is not visible in these sections. (A) Low magnification view of the pocket that contained implant prior to fixation in the 16 months rabbit. There is noted to be epithelial in growth along the anterior wall of the pocket. Cell type was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. (B) Higher magnification view. (C, D) There was otherwise no significant inflammatory response or capsule formation around the implant.
