Midazolam Additive to Local Anesthetic in Peribulbar Block

"The Peribulbar block was performed by inserting the needle percutaneously at the area bounded by 1- The imaginary perpendicular line joining inferior lacrimal papilla to the inferior margin of the orbit, laterally 2- Lateral border of the nose, medially 3- Inferior lacrimal canaliculus, superiorly and 4- Inferior orbital margin, inferiorly. The needle was introduced in an anteroposterior direction to its half-length and then in an oblique direction to the optical foramen.~After negative aspiration, 6-8 ml of local anesthetic solution (lidocaine 2%, hyaluronidase 15 IU / ml ) was injected slowly over about 40 seconds or until the appearance of lid fullness. This was followed by a gentle digital massage to the eyeball to facilitate diffusion of the local anesthetic mixture."
