Effects of Aberrant Pax6 Gene Dosage on Mouse Corneal Pathophysiology and Corneal Epithelial Homeostasis [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Altered dosage of the transcription factor PAX6 causes multiple human eye pathophysiologies. PAX6(+/-) heterozygotes suffer from aniridia and aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK), a corneal deterioration that probably involves a limbal ...

Ocular Sulfur Mustard (SM) exposure causes increase in corneal thickness and causes corneal opacity, corneal ulceration, and corneal neovascularization.

, 2021
The right eyes of New Zealand white rabbits were exposed to SM (~0.4 mg/L) vapor either for 5 min (shorter duration) or 7 min (longer duration) and the clinical progression of ocular injury was observed starting from day 1 (6 h) up to 28 days post ...

Comparative study of measurement of intraocular pressure in eyes with corneal opacity and normal cornea by Tonopen Avia, rebound tonometer (I-care), and noncontact tonometer

Journal of Marine Medical Society, 2020
Purpose: The most common indications for keratoplasty are patients with corneal opacity. The presence of glaucoma prior to keratoplasty is an important risk factor, eventually may lead to failure of the corneal graft.

Evaluation of interface quality in organ-cultured lamellar corneal transplants [PDF]

, 2012
Background: With increasing numbers of lamellar keratoplasties, eye banks are challenged to deliver precut lamellar donor tissue. In Europe, the most common technique of corneal storage is organ culture which requires a deswelling process before surgical

A Simple and Easy Method Using Rigid Endoscope to Detect Iridocorneal and Keratolenticular Adhesions in Peters' Anomaly

Case Reports in Ophthalmology, 2013
Peters' anomaly is characterized by a central corneal opacity with corresponding defects in the posterior stroma, Descemet's membrane, and endothelium. We present 2 cases that showed corneal opacity when examined by topical endoscopic imaging (TEI). Case

Simultaneous Vitreoretinal Surgery and Penetrating Keratoplasty without a Keratoprosthesis or Endoscopy for Vitreoretinal Disease Associated with Corneal Opacity

Case Reports in Ophthalmology, 2020
We evaluated the visual outcome of combined penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and 25G pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) performed without a temporary keratoprosthesis or endoscopy in a patient with vitreoretinal disease complicated by severe corneal opacity.

Impact of keratocyte differentiation on corneal opacity resolution and visual function recovery in male rats. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Intrastromal cell therapy utilizing quiescent corneal stromal keratocytes (qCSKs) from human donor corneas emerges as a promising treatment for corneal opacities, aiming to overcome limitations of traditional surgeries by reducing procedural complexity ...

Identification of the regulatory circuit governing corneal epithelial fate determination and disease.

PLoS Biology, 2023
The transparent corneal epithelium in the eye is maintained through the homeostasis regulated by limbal stem cells (LSCs), while the nontransparent epidermis relies on epidermal keratinocytes for renewal.
