Corneal opacities in gaucher disease
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1998To describe the corneal findings in a variant of Gaucher disease.Case report. In an 18-year-old man, ophthalmic and general clinical evaluation, and enzymatic and molecular genetics studies were performed.Diffuse, well-defined, small, linear, or dotlike corneal opacities were observed through, out the posterior two thirds of the corneal stroma in both ...

Collagen cross‐linking: a new treatment paradigm in corneal disease – a review
Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2010The last 2 years has seen a marked increase in the prominence of corneal collagen cross‐linking as a treatment strategy for progressive keratoconus. This interest has arisen from a body of laboratory evidence documenting the biomechanical and cellular ...

Diseases of the lids and ocular surface can induce both focal and widespread changes in corneal shape, with primary and secondary effects. A lid lump compressing the central cornea causes central flattening, whereas one compressing the peripheral cornea will cause secondary central steepening.

Phototherapeutic Keratectomy in Corneal Diseases
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1993ABSTRACT We present our clinical strategy to treat corneal diseases with the excimer laser. Nine eyes with recurrent erosion after trauma, three eyes with band keratopathy, and one eye with secondary crystalline deposits and a leukoma adherens after perforating injury underwent excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK).

The cornea is one of the rare tissues of the body that physiologically contains no blood or lymphatic vessels. This avascularity, also termed the “corneal (lymph)angiogenic privilege”, is essential for corneal transparency and for proper vision. Nevertheless, several severe inflammatory diseases of the ocular surface can lead to a breakdown of this ...

Epidemiology of Corneal Diseases
2019Epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of disease and the application of this understanding to the treatment and prevention of health conditions [1]. In essence, epidemiology tells us about the “who,” “when,” “where,” and “how” of human disease.

Herpetic Corneal Epithelial Disease
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1976The clinical differentiation of corneal epithelial lesions due to herpes simplex or herpes zoster may be confusing. Practical clinical tests, including the use of topical ocular stains, are useful to differentiate corneal epithelial lesions caused by these two viruses.
