A 2.8\u2009mm uniplanar oblique (~45\u00b0) corneal incision was created ventrolaterally approximately 2\u2009mm from the limbus using a keratome. The anterior chamber was filled with dispersive hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), and controlled viscoelastic egress facilitated atraumatic extrusion of the worm. The incision was left unsutured.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Worm removal was successful in 11\/12 eyes (91.7%). In one chronically affected eye, the worm was suspected to be adherent to the iris and could not be removed. Median incision\u2010to\u2010extraction time was 2\u2009min (range 1\u20133\u2009min). Nine eyes (75%) retained or regained vision within 7\u2009days; three remained non\u2010visual due to pre\u2010existing end\u2010stage glaucoma or suspected retinal detachment. Postoperative complications included transient peripheral corneal edema in one horse, which resolved with medical management, and anterior chamber fibrin formation in one eye in which viscoelastic was not used.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n \n Although not a substitute for surgery under general anesthesia, viscoelastic\u2010assisted removal of\n \n S. digitata<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n through a small self\u2010sealing corneal incision is a rapid, minimally invasive, and field\u2010applicable technique when performed by appropriately trained ophthalmic surgeons.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vop.70197","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,23]],"date-time":"2026-05-23T05:12:31Z","timestamp":1779513151000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Surgical Technique for Removal of\n Setaria digitata<\/i>\n From the Anterior Chamber Under Standing Sedation: Outcomes in 12 Horses"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-7318-4757","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kasturi C.","family":"Bhadsavle","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Eye Vet Clinic Mumbai India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-9904-1684","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamalkumar","family":"Jiddimani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Eye Vet Clinic Mumbai India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","first-page":"1575","volume-title":"Veterinary Medicine","author":"Radostits O.
