Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: study group : subtenon injection of local anesthetic with propofol sedation
sedation was induced with fentanyl a loading dose of propofol, followed by continuous infusion of propofol, 3-6 mg/k/h to deep sedation. A nasal tube was inserted to prevent airway obstruction. SubTenon's anaesthesia included "standard" solution is a mixture of 2% plain lignocaine, 0.5% plain bupivacaine, and 150 iu hyaluronidase 0.5%.
Active Comparator: controle group : patient receive general anesthesia
General anaesthesia consisted of premedication with midazolam, followed by fentanyl, cis atracrium, propofol, and tracheal intubation
