Conjunctival grafting for ocular surface disease
Current Opinion in Opthalmology, 1999The procedure of transplanting healthy conjunctiva onto eyes with damaged ocular surface epithelium was first described by Thoft in 1977. Today, conjunctival autografting is widely used in pterygium surgery and has been shown to be both safe and effective in reducing pterygium recurrence.

Interpositional Polytetrafluoroethylene Grafts
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1991Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic, woven, nonabsorbable, nonantigenic, Teflon-related material that has been shown to be useful in correcting eyelid retraction and as an implant enveloping material in primary and secondary surgery to correct anophthalmos.

Amniotic Membrane Grafting in the Management of Conjunctival Vascular Malformations
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2009Vascular malformations of the conjunctiva are symptomatically distressing and surgically challenging. Because their expansive nature necessitates broad conjunctival sacrifice in some cases, epithelial reconstitution may be the best way to avoid symblepharon formation.

Use of free conjunctival grafts in horses: ten cases
Australian Veterinary Journal, 2004AbsractObjective To assess the effectiveness of free conjunctival grafts in the treatment of horses with a range of keratopathies.Design A retrospective clinical study of ten client‐owned horses treated at Murdoch University Veterinary Hospital from May 1996 to September 2001.Procedure The suitability of patients for the surgical procedure was assessed

Storage, surgery, outcome, and complications of corneal and conjunctival grafts
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 1993Corneal transplantation is still limited by a shortage of donor material, but the type of storage medium used once a cornea has been acquired is probably irrelevant to graft outcome. Vancomycin HCl shows promise as a supplement to gentamicin sulfate in storage media.

International Ophthalmology
To compare the risk of recurrence and disease-free time after conjunctival-limbal autograft (CLAG) or conjunctival autograft (CAG) with sutureless (fibrin glue) fixation for pterygium excision.This is a retrospective cohort study. We reviewed the charts of 312 patients who underwent CLAG and CAG sutureless techniques between 2010 and 2019.

RECONSTRUCTION OF A CONJUNCTIVAL SAC WITH THIERSCH GRAFTS
Archives of Surgery, 1933The epithelial inlay graft described by Esser 1 and developed extensively by Gillies 2 has many useful applications in plastic surgery. We applied the method successfully in reconstructing a conjunctival sac which was completely destroyed by a chemical burn.

Infectious Keratitis in the Corneal Graft: Treatment With Partial Conjunctival Flaps
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2005* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The infection of the corneal graft is one of the most serious complications following keratoplasty. In many instances, it can be treated successfully with intensive topical and subconjunctival antibiotics. However, when this therapy is ineffective, a surgical approach must be considered.

Comparison of Photochemical Crosslinking Versus Sutures for Bonding Conjunctival Grafts
Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2019Background and ObjectivesTo explore whether Rose Bengal‐induced photochemical crosslinking (RB‐PCL) can be a replacement for sutures in conjunctival autograft bonding, we compared the safety, operating time, postoperative ocular signs, and inflammatory responses of RB‐PCL versus nylon suturing for sealing conjunctival autografts in rabbits.Study Design/
