Herpes simplex keratitis: Challenges in diagnosis and clinical management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Herpes simplex virus is responsible for numerous ocular diseases, the most common of which is herpetic stromal keratitis. This is a recurrent infection of the cornea that typically begins with a subclinical infection of the cornea that establishes a ...

Numerical model of optical coherence tomographic vibrography imaging to estimate corneal biomechanical properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Most techniques measuring corneal biomechanics in vivo are biased by side factors. We demonstrate the ability of optical coherence tomographic (OCT) vibrography to determine corneal material parameters, while reducing current prevalent restrictions of ...

The variability of corneal and anterior segment parameters in keratoconus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose: To analyse, describe and test diverse corneal and anterior segment parameters in normal and keratoconic eyes to better understand the geometry of the keratoconic cornea. Method: 44 eyes from 44 keratoconic patients and 44 eyes from 44 healthy

The relationship between CPAP usage and corneal thickness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a correlation between CPAP usage and corneal thickness in patients with sleep disordered breathing. Full-night polysomnography (PSG) recordings were collected.

Limbal stem cell transplantation: clinical results, limits, and perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is a clinical condition characterized by damage of cornea limbal stem cells, which results in an impairment of corneal epithelium turnover and in an invasion of the cornea by the conjunctival epithelium.

Corneal pachymetry by AS-OCT after Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Corneal thickness (pachymetry) maps can be used to monitor restoration of corneal endothelial function, for example after Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK).

Glycosaminoglycans in the human cornea: age-related changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
AIM: To investigate possible age-related changes in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the human cornea. The substances today called GAGs were previously referred to as mucopolysaccharides.
