Effectiveness of Khat on Eyelid Wound Healing After Oculoplastic Surgery - a Prospective Study.

Surgery Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effectiveness of Khat on Eyelid Wound Healing After Oculoplastic Surgery - a Prospective Study.

Clinical Trial Summary

The post operative routine after Oculoplastic Surgery includes usage of cold compressions for symptomatic relief and decreasing of the edema and local hematomas in the first few days after the surgery. Khat (Catha edulis) is a plant that is used mainly for chewing and has a known stimulating effect, some patients report major improvement after including these leaves in the compressions they use after surgery. Khat contains the chemical ingredients Cathine and Cathinone, which are amphetamine-like alkaloids and probably the main contributors for its active effects. Our main goal is to use compressions that include the Khat leaves and check their effect on reducing the edema and hematomas after oculoplastic surgery.
