Two-year topographic and densitometric outcomes of accelerated (45 mW/cm2) transepithelial corneal cross-linking for keratoconus: a case-control study

BMC Ophthalmology, 2018
Background Conventional corneal cross-linking is effective for retarding the progression of keratoconus. However the long-term efficacy and safety of accelerated (45 mW/cm2) transepithelial corneal cross-linking (ATE-CXL) on progressive keratoconus (KC ...

Effect of epithelial debridement on human cornea proteoglycans [PDF]

, 2001
Corneal transparency is attributed to the regular spacing and diameter of collagen fibrils, and proteoglycans may play a role in fibrillogenesis and matrix assembly. Corneal scar tissue is opaque and this opacity is explained by decreased ultrastructural

One-year natural course of corneal densitometry in high myopic patients after implantation of an implantable collamer lens (model V4c)

BMC Ophthalmology, 2020
Background Corneal densitometry, which is also known as corneal backscattering, is a surrogate measure of corneal clarity. The purpose of the study was to investigate the changes in corneal densitometry (CD) after implanting an implantable collamer lens (

Factors influencing haze formation and corneal flattening, and the impact of haze on visual acuity after conventional collagen cross-linking: a 12-month retrospective study

BMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background Our aim was to determine associations of pachymetry, keratometry, and their changes with haze formation and corneal flattening after collagen cross-linking, and to analyse the relationship between postoperative haze and visual outcome. Methods

Designer Leptin Receptor Antagonist Allo-aca Inhibits VEGF Effects in Ophthalmic Neoangiogenesis Models [PDF]

, 2016
Experimental and clinical data suggest that pro-angiogenic, pro-inflammatory and mitogenic cytokine leptin can be implicated in ocular neovascularization and other eye pathologies. At least in part, leptin action appears to be mediated through functional
