Corneal thickness in Fuchs' dystrophy with and without epithelial oedema [PDF]
Eye, 1998 To investigate whether the occurrence of epithelial oedema in Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy is associated with a particular corneal thickness or the extent of central corneal guttae.Sixty-seven patients, aged 52-90 years, presenting in our clinic with Fuchs' dystrophy were divided on the basis of the presence or absence of epithelial oedema as ...

Corneal epithelial thickness as a diagnostic tool in ophthalmology – a case series
Klinika Oczna, 2023 Following the introduction of a commercially available SD-OCT system in 2017, corneal epithelial mapping was incorporated into ophthalmology, particularly refractive surgery, as a valuable, highly diagnostic tool.

Comparison of corneal epithelial and stromal thickness distributions between eyes with keratoconus and healthy eyes with corneal astigmatism ≥ 2.0 D. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 To identify corneal epithelial- and stromal-thickness distribution patterns in keratoconus using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).We analyzed SD-OCT findings in 20 confirmed cases of keratoconus (group 1) and in 20 healthy subjects ...

Topical rosiglitazone is an effective anti-scarring agent in the cornea [PDF]
, 2013 Corneal scarring remains a major cause of blindness world-wide, with limited treatment options, all of which have side-effects. Here, we tested the hypothesis that topical application of Rosiglitazone, a Thiazolidinedione and ligand of peroxisome ...

Corneal thickness, epithelial thickness and axial length differences in normal and high myopia [PDF]
BMC Ophthalmology, 2015 Corneal biometric parameters can possibly be influenced by high myopia (HM). The influence of HM on corneal thickness (CT), epithelial thickness (ET) has not yet been clearly established. The aim of this study is to observe ET, CT and axial length (AL) differences between in normal and subjects with HMs and to investigate factors influencing the ...

Eccentric lamellar keratolimbal grafts harvested with a manually guided microkeratome [PDF]
, 2007 Background: To perform lamellar keratolimbal allograft transplantation in a one- step procedure with a single graft, we investigated the feasibility of harvesting eccentric lamellar keratolimbal grafts from conventionally processed corneoscleral buttons ...
