Abstract. Measurement of the topographical corneal edema response has been previously restricted by the use of optical pachometry and small sample sizes. This study uses ultrasound pachometry to measure changes in the corneal thickness of 23 subjects at 9 locations during 2 hours' wear of a thick soft contact lens.

Mechanisms of Visual Loss in Corneal Edema
Although visual disability from corneal edema is a well-recognized clinical finding, it is not easily confirmed by routine visual assessment. A more reliable assessment of visual changes resulting from corneal edema of varying origins is achieved by measurement of changes in the contrast sensitivity function.

Corneal edema: Cause and treatment
Survey of Ophthalmology, 1975Corneal edema, adequately understood and appropriately treated, has a good prognosis. The pathophysiological bases and the various causes are considered. Goals and techniques of medical and surgical therapies are reviewed.

Central Corneal Edema with Scleral-Lens Wear [PDF]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety of scleral-lens designs, we model and clinically assess central corneal edema induced by scleral-lens wear for healthy subjects.

Phosphatic Metabolism and Corneal Edema
Cornea, 1991From three groups of patients with corneal edema, the degree of edema was clinically quantified prior to penetrating keratoplasty. Corneas from patients with failed grafts (n = 16) had the greatest edema (mean score 3.8 +/- 0.6 SE), corneas with Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy (n = 12) had the least edema (1.4 +/- 0.4), and corneas with aphakic and ...

Amantadine-related corneal edema and endothelial cell loss: Four case reports [PDF]
Amantadine is widely used in treating influenza A, hepatitis, Parkinson's disease, and fatigue in multiple sclerosis. In the past, only a few case reports have demonstrated that amantadine is associated with corneal edema, endothelial dysfunction, and ...

We report on a patient, who regularly developed reversible corneal edema of the right eye after cold stress. Cycling tours in cold weather and windy conditions seemed to precipitate the edema. After a provocation test, we also observed transient, corneal edema.

Ketamine-Associated Corneal Edema
Cornea, 2012To report a case of ketamine-associated corneal edema.Case report.A 61-year-old man prescribed oral ketamine for refractory depression developed bilateral corneal edema. This immediately resolved off ketamine and recurred with rechallenge. Rapid corneal endothelial cell loss occurred during this period.Ketamine may induce potentially reversible corneal

To review the pathological mechanisms and treatments for pseudophakic corneal edema (PCE), one of the most common indications for penetrating keratoplasty.The literature was examined for the molecular biology associated with PCE and for the surgical and medical treatments for this disorder.The incidence of PCE has recently been decreasing because of ...

Journal of The British Contact Lens Association, 1981
Corneal edema is observed in diseased eyes, but also in eyes that we accept as being properly fitted with a contact lens. Although the contact lens practitioner aims for little or no edema, that goal is rarely if ever achieved (Holden, et al. 1980). The question we will address here is "what causes edema in contact lens wear?" The obvious but not very ...
