Corneal epithelial stem cells for corneal injury
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2018Ocular surface diseases with limbal insufficiency represent a therapeutic challenge for restoring vision. This corneal deficiency includes both classical ocular diseases (as chemical burns) and rare ocular diseases (as congenital aniridia and ocular cicatricial pemphigoid).Our understanding of limbal epithelial stem cells (LESCs) has increased the ...

Emergency management of corneal injuries
Injury, 2007Corneal injuries account for a significant proportion of the ophthalmic workload of most emergency departments. Although the vast majority of cases are relatively minor, accurate diagnosis and appropriate management are vital to prevent potentially sight-threatening sequelae. We present a survey of corneal injury cases at a general emergency department.

Cornea, 1983
Using a rabbit model of lamellar keratoplasty (LKP), we examined the effect of standardized Barraquer cryolathe freeze injury on corneal structure and keratocyte biochemistry. Cryolathe corneal freeze injury caused immediate disruption of the stromal keratocytes and initiated an inflammatory cell reaction peaking at 3 days following freeze injury ...

Astigmatism after corneal thermal injury
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2001A 42-year-old woman developed significant astigmatism after localized thermal injury to the cornea during a cosmetic eyelid procedure. The induced astigmatism regressed substantially over the ensuing months. One year after the injury, astigmatic keratotomy (AK) was performed, further reducing the astigmatism and improving the patient's subjective ...

Airbag-mediated corneal injury
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1991This is the first report of airbag-induced facial and corneal abrasions associated with several weeks of blurred vision in a patient without previous visual or ocular problems. Similar episodes of minor trauma from airbags are becoming commonplace, reflecting the increasing popularity of these lifesaving devices. Nonetheless, airbag-associated injuries,

Corneal Injuries During General Anesthesia
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1975A corneal abrasion is the most common eye complication during general anesthesia and recovery. It is painful, may progress to inflammation of the uveal tract, and in the presence of contamination may lead to a serious infection. Both eyes may be involved, as the two reported cases show.

Corneal chalcosis following blast injury
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012A 54-year-old man presented with irritation and progressive blurring of the vision in the right eye during the preceding 2 months. He was an unfortunate victim of a terrorist bomb blast attack, which happened in a shopping mall complex 2 years previously. As he had received a severe ocular injury, the left eye had been enucleated. At this presentation,

Acute Corneal Injury by Mustard Gas
Southern Medical Journal, 1977Described is an acute ocular injury caused by mustard gas. The clinical course was similar to what has been established by laboratory research. Some of the histopathologic events have been discussed in theory since no tissue sample from this reported case was available for examination.
