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 ...

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 ...

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.

This multiauthored volume is equally divided into chapters dealing with diseases of the peripheral cornea and neuro-ophthalmology. As with other volumes in this series, the chapters are brief, adequately illustrated, and selectively referenced. They are easily readable.

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.

Genetic mutation can result in insignificant corneal changes that can simply be incidental findings on exam or can result in defects of enormous visual consequence. The more substantial phenotypes tend to be secondary to mutations that cause changes in gene expression early in embryogenesis.

Laser applications for corneal disease
Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2003The clinical use of the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser and diode laser is increasing in veterinary medicine. New applications for their use are being explored, including ophthalmic applications. The use of lasers for small-animal corneal disease is fairly limited due to several factors.
