Diseases of the corneal endothelium
Experimental Eye Research, 2021The corneal endothelial monolayer and associated Descemet's membrane (DM) complex is a unique structure that plays an essential role in corneal function. Endothelial cells are neural crest derived cells that rest on a special extracellular matrix and play a major role in maintaining stromal hydration within a narrow physiologic range necessary for ...

Corneal epithelial disease [PDF]
This article reviews conditions that primarily affect the corneal epithelium as distinct from corneal stromal diseases. Corneal ulceration is discussed elsewhere in this issue. The other corneal conditions include a variety of more subtle epithelial disease,which might colloquially be termed epitheliopathies, as well as uninfected indolent superficial ...

[The progress of corneal crosslink in corneal disease].
[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2010Corneal crosslink through UVA-riboflavin photochemistry has been shown to be an effective treatment for keratoconus, related keratectasias and infectious melting keratitis that did not respond to systemic therapy. It is a new approach to increase the mechanical and biochemical stability of the stromal tissue.

Large Corneal Transplants in Corneal Destructive Disease
Klinische Monatsblätter für Augenheilkunde, 1994Forty nine keratoplasties were performed in 18 eyes of 17 patients with severe corneal destructive disease.One eye became phthisical and 5 others lost useful visual acuity but retained a satisfactory cosmetic result. No eyes were enucleated. Recurrence of the host disease in the graft was the largest cause of visual failure. Primary allograft rejection

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2005
The cornea is naturally transparent. Anything that interferes with the cornea's stromal architecture, contributes to blood vessel migration, increases corneal pigmentation, or predisposes to corneal edema, disrupts the corneas transparency and indicates corneal disease.

The Topography of Corneal Disease
European journal of Implant and Refractive Surgery, 1995This article is the seventh in a series which describes the role of computerized videokeratoscopy and highlights its value in different clinical settings. It illustrates and describes the variety of topographic patterns seen with corneal disease.

To the Editor. —The article by Drs Gibralter and Jakobiec entitled "Supravital and Vital Staining of Diseased Corneal Endothelium in Whole-Mount Preparations," in the AugustArchives(1982;100:1308-1312), described a new staining technique (a combination of trypan blue and alizarin red S) for quantitative evaluation of corneal endothelial cells.

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2008
Abstract Purpose To present the main causes of corneal bacterial diseases and suggest an appropriate management. Bacterial keratitis is the most common cause of infected corneal ulceration. Methods The epidemiology of corneal bacterial diseases and their link with different risk factors will be studied.

Corneal Surface Disease Topology
International Ophthalmology Clinics, 1998The specific morphology and distribution of corneal surface lesions may point toward a specific diagnosis and pathogenesis in individual cases (see Fig 1). Staining lesions may be fine (e.g., staphylococcal) or punctate (e.g., keratitis sicca). The size and appearance of staining and nonstaining lesions of the epithelium and subepithelial cornea may be
