Intrastromal keratopigmentation: a boon for unsightly corneal scars
International Ophthalmology, 2023The aim of this study was to improve cosmesis in patients with corneal opacity (CO) using newer organic micronized pigments.Settings: Tertiary Care eye center, Design: Retrospective study.Patients with unsightly corneal scars not suitable for keratoplasty, eccentric corneal opacity not requiring keratoplasty, or lenticular opacity/anterior or posterior

Experimental Eye Research, 1973
Abstract The present study is concerned with scar formation in rabbit cornea after removal of a centrally-located 2·0 mm full thickness corneal “button”. Simplicity in wounding, reproducibility in healing with minimum complications, and ease of recovery of adequate amounts of “pure” scar tissue make this experimental model suitable for quantitative ...

Corneal opacification (i.e., haze) following a non-denaturing acute injury to the cornea is a process which takes about 5 days to manifest itself, indicating that it is the consequence of cellular and molecular biological processes. In order to obtain a better understanding of the haze development process, and to test candidate anti-haze therapies, we ...

Photodocumentation of Corneal Scarring
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1996ABSTRACT PURPOSE: A standardized system for photodocumenting corneal scars and for evaluating these photographs does not exist and is essential for clinical research. To address this need, we developed a system for photographing and evaluating corneal scars.

Penetrating Keratoplasty for Trachomatous Corneal Scarring
Cornea, 2008To evaluate graft survival and visual outcome after penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) for trachomatous corneal scarring.A retrospective review was conducted on all cases of PKP performed at King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital between January 1, 1997, and December 31, 2001, for trachomatous corneal scarring.This study included 127 eyes. The mean age at the

Familial Corneal Scarring: A New Dystrophy?
Ophthalmology, 1984A 34-year-old white man with skin manifestations of the epidermal nevus syndrome was found to have anesthetic corneas, dry eyes, and localized opaque nodular elevations of both corneas. Similar corneal lesions, unassociated with corneal anesthesia, were found in four family members.

Mouse Models of Corneal Scarring
2017Corneal scarring is an obligatory consequence of stroma corneal injury and is a major cause of decreased visual quality and vision loss worldwide. There are currently no satisfactory intervention therapies for corneal fibrosis. In this chapter, we describe well-established in vivo corneal wound models to allow researchers to investigate epithelial and ...

Hyperosmolar Potassium Inhibits Corneal Myofibroblast Transformation and Prevent Corneal Scar
Current Eye Research, 2022Corneal myofibroblasts play a crucial role in the process of corneal scarring. Potassium has been documented to reduce skin scar tissue formation. Herein, we investigated the ability of potassium to prevent corneal fibrosis in cell culture and in vivo.Corneal fibroblasts (CFs) were isolated from the corneal limbus and treated with TGF-β1 to transform ...

The Surgical Removal of Corneal Scars
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1942The early Greek physicians, who had a remarkably clear concept of the affections of the eye and the relationship between the brain and the eye, held sight only sec ond in importance to breathing. Diseases of the eye were classified as follows: (1) Disorders of the brain extending through the optic nerve to the eye; (2) organic disturbances in the eye,
