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 ...

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.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2004
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 ...

Metalloproteinases in Corneal Diseases
Cornea, 2012Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases with the potential to degrade all types of extracellular matrix. The ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase) family of peptidases was recently identified as cleaving the extracellular domain of transmembrane proteins. This was termed ectodomain shedding.

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).

Evaluation of the results of HLA typing of 187 patients grouped into herpetic keratitis (37), non‐herpetic keratitis (43), keratoconus (42), endothelial dystrophy (23), stromal dystrophy (13), lues (5), and injuries (24), failed to show convincing deviations in any of the groups from a normal control series (2900 persons). Yet, as for the herpes group,

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
