[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.

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

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.

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).
