Hereditary Nonprogressive Deep Corneal Dystrophy

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1961
Hereditary nonprogressive deep corneal dystrophy is a relatively rare disease involving only Descemet's membrane and the endothelium of the cornea. It is not progressive with age. The disease appears to be on a hereditary basis and is more severe in the succeeding generations.

HEREDITARY CORNEAL DYSTROPHY

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1943
A family has recently been observed of which the members presented hereditary corneal dystrophy, a condition to which attention should be called because of its relative rarity and because of the slight variation which new pedigrees add to existing knowledge of it.

CLASSIFICATION AND TREATMENT OF HEREDITARY CORNEAL DYSTROPHIES

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1954
AS A RULE hereditary degenerations of the cornea can be clearly distinguished from other corneal affections by their bilateral aspect, more or less typical morphology, and slow progression, with absence of vascularization. In addition, the fundamental criteria of all heredodegenerations apply equally to corneal degenerations: onset at approximately the

The intraocular straylight function in some hereditary corneal dystrophies

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1993
The direct compensation method allows for an accurate determination of intraocular light scattering between 3.5 and 25 degrees of scattering angle and is suitable for untrained subjects. The method was used to study light scattering in four forms of hereditary corneal dystrophies.

Molecular Mechanisms of Fuchs and Congenital Hereditary Endothelial Corneal Dystrophies

2020
The cornea, the eye's outermost layer, protects the eye from the environment. The cornea's innermost layer is an endothelium separating the stromal layer from the aqueous humor. A central role of the endothelium is to maintain stromal hydration state. Defects in maintaining this hydration can impair corneal clarity and thus visual acuity.

[Congenital hereditary corneal dystrophy associated with various extraoculary anomalies].

Ophthalmologica. Journal international d'ophtalmologie. International journal of ophthalmology. Zeitschrift fur Augenheilkunde, 1975
Two subjects (brother and sister), children of consanguineous parents, showed a typical congenital corneal dystrophy associated with mental retardation and a bilateral malformation of the little finger. One of them, a boy of 10, was fat and showed a hearing loss for high tones. His corneal opacity diminished during 7 years observation.

Cholesterol turnover in hereditary crystalline corneal dystrophy of Schnyder.

Transactions of the American Ophthalmological Society, 1979
A patient with hereditary crystalline corneal dystrophy of Schnyder required penetrating keratoplasty because of poor visual acuity. Blood cholesterol was labeled with 14C-cholesterol and 11 days later a penetrating keratoplasty was done. At the time of surgery, corneal levels of cholesterol were much higher than serum levels, showing that cornea is an
