The wide variety of techniques now available to provide analgesia and sedation in children undergoing laceration repair include needle-free techniques of wound repair, alternative methods of local anaesthetic infiltration, and non-pharmacological interventions. Knowledge and use of these options will help the practitioner limit a child's distress.

PURPOSE: We used subtenon's local anesthesia for optic nerve sheath fenestration as an alternative to either general or retrobulbar anesthesia. METHODS: Thirty patients with pseudotumor cerebri, who were unresponsive to medical treatment, underwent optic nerve sheath fenestration after administration of topical and subtenon's local anesthesia. RESULTS: When topical tetracaine, in conjunction with subtenon's anesthesia, was administered at the beginning of the procedure, excellent anesthesia and maximal patient comfort were achieved. CONCLUSIONS: The use of local anesthesia allows for a pain-free, expeditious operation with fewer potential anesthetic complications.
