Effects of Laser In Situ Keratomileusis on the Corneal Endothelium
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) on the corneal endothelium. In a prospective study, the corneal endothelium of 87 eyes (45 patients) was examined before and 1 month after LASIK.

Longitudinal Changes to Tight Junction Expression and Endothelial Cell Integrity in a Mouse Model of Sterile Corneal Inflammation [PDF]
PURPOSE: We previously reported that applying toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands to an injured cornea induces corneal edema at 24 hours, which subsides by 1 week.

The Immunological Basis of Dry Eye Disease and Current Topical Treatment Options. [PDF]
Homeostasis of the lacrimal functional unit is needed to ensure a well-regulated ocular immune response comprising innate and adaptive phases. When the ocular immune system is excessively stimulated and/or immunoregulatory mechanisms are disrupted, the ...
