Mechanical removal of epithelial hyperplasia leads to successful treatment of irregular astigmatism
BMC Ophthalmology, 2023 Background Corneal epithelium remodeling in response to changes in the anterior corneal surface (keratoconus, corneal refractive surgery) is well-documented in the literature. However, several conditions may induce a different behavior of the epithelium,

Effect of Hypoxia on Central and Peripheral Corneal Thickness and Corneal Topography [PDF]
, 1975 Epithelial anoxia causes increases in both central and peripheral corneal thickness. The thickness increase is eliminated when the cornea is exposed to 2% oxygen.
