Ulcerative Keratitis in Bullous Keratopathy

Ophthalmology, 1997
The authors review a large series of patients with bullous keratopathy (BK) to analyze the frequency of ulcerative keratitis, and determine the contributory roles of bullae, bandage soft contact lenses, steroids, and prophylactic antibiotics.A retrospective review of all cases of pseudophakic or aphakic bullous keratopathy presenting to the cornea ...

The Role of the Endothelium in Bullous Keratopathy

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1956
Bullous keratopathy is a state of abnormal corneal epithelial hydration characterized clinically by corneal opacification and the presence of epithelial vacuoles and bullae. In its advanced form, a pannus develops. The stroma becomes vascularized and scarred and, finally, calcium may be deposited in the anterior portions of the stroma.

Surgical Treatment of Bullous Keratopathy

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1960
Two years ago at this meeting I discussed the use of conjunctival flaps in the treatment of various corneal diseases.1At that time I also described a technique of applying total conjunctival flap for the covering of the cornea. This technique gave reasonable assurance that the cornea would remain covered permanently.

Iridoschisis associated with nanophthalmos and bullous keratopathy

International Ophthalmology, 2012
Iridoschisis is a rare condition in which the iris stroma splits into anterior and posterior layers. Iridoschisis is associated with anterior segment abnormalities including keratoconus, lens subluxation and angle-closure glaucoma. We describe the first case in which iridoschisis has occurred in association with nanophthalmos.
