Corneal dystrophies in Japan [PDF]
Recent advances in molecular genetics have increased our understanding of the role of genes. Four autosomal dominant corneal dystrophies (CDs); granular CD (GCD), Avellino CD (ACD), lattice CD (LCD), and Reis-Bücklers CD (RBCD) were mapped to the long arm of chromosome 5 (5q31).

Recurrence of Avellino Corneal Dystrophy Following Penetrating Keratoplasty: A Case Report
Granular – lattice (Avellino) corneal dystrophy is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion which affects stroma of the cornea with recurrent erosions and decreased vision due to clouding of cornea in later stage.

The term corneal dystrophy embraces a heterogenous group of bilateral genetically determined non-inflammatory corneal diseases that are restricted to the cornea. The designation is imprecise but remains in vogue because of its clinical value. Clinically, the corneal dystrophies can be divided into three groups based on the sole or predominant ...

Macular corneal dystrophy with isolated peripheral Descemet membrane deposits
Purpose: Macular Corneal Dystrophy (MCD, MIM #217800) is a category 1 corneal stromal dystrophy as per the current IC3D classification. While characterized by macular stromal deposits, we report a case of MCD type II with isolated bilateral peripheral ...

Portable OCT-assisted surgical treatment of intracorneal pre-Descemet epithelial cyst: a case report
Background Intracorneal epithelial cysts are a rare clinical condition that can occur anywhere in the corneal tissue; however, they appear most commonly in the stroma.
