Ultrahigh-resolution OCT imaging of the human cornea.

open access: yesBiomedical Optics Express, 2017
We present imaging of corneal pathologies using optical coherence tomography (OCT) with high resolution. To this end, an ultrahigh-resolution spectral domain OCT (UHR-OCT) system based on a broad bandwidth Ti:sapphire laser is employed.

Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in the correction of myopic astigmatism: outcomes and limitations - an update

open access: yesEye and Vision, 2017
Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) is a flap-free intrastromal technique for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism. To date, this technique lacks automated centration and cyclotorsion control, so several concerns have been raised ...

Tumour angiogenesis: The gap between theory and experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A common experimental technique for viewing in vivo angiogenesis utilises tumours implanted into a test animal cornea. The cornea is avascular but the tumour promotes vascularisation from the limbus and the new blood vessels can be readily observed ...

Biomechanical Diagnostics of the Cornea

open access: yesInternational ophthalmology clinics, 2017
Biomechanics is the science concerned with the origin and effects of forces that act on living organisms. The cornea is a complex composite whose behavior depends on its structural subcomponents and their organizational motifs.

Damaging Effects of Ultraviolet Radiation on the Cornea

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, 2017
The cornea sits at the anterior aspect of the eye and, like the skin, is highly exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UVR). The cornea blocks a significant proportion of UVB from reaching the posterior structures of the eye.

Pigmentary keratitis and mixed chromatophoroma in a betta fish (Betta splendens)

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 587-592, December 2022., 2022
Graphical Abstract This clinical case report describes a <1 year old betta fish that developed pigmentary keratitis, anterior uveitis, and a mixed chromatophoroma that led to the patient's death. A review of available anecdotal and scientific literature suggests that there may have been a genetic cause for these health problems.

Limbal stem cell transplantation: clinical results, limits, and perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is a clinical condition characterized by damage of cornea limbal stem cells, which results in an impairment of corneal epithelium turnover and in an invasion of the cornea by the conjunctival epithelium.

Safety and Efficacy of Corneal Cross-Linking in Patients Affected by Keratoconus: Long-Term Results

open access: yesMedical Sciences, 2023
The present study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL). A total of 886 eyes with progressive keratoconus were enrolled in a retrospective cohort study in a tertiary care university hospital.

Neuroanatomy and Neurochemistry of Mouse Cornea

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2016
Purpose To investigate the entire nerve architecture and content of the two main sensory neuropeptides in mouse cornea to determine if it is a good model with similarities to human corneal innervation. Methods Mice aged 1 to 24 weeks were used.
