Topical rosiglitazone is an effective anti-scarring agent in the cornea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Corneal scarring remains a major cause of blindness world-wide, with limited treatment options, all of which have side-effects. Here, we tested the hypothesis that topical application of Rosiglitazone, a Thiazolidinedione and ligand of peroxisome ...

The thick and thin of the central corneal thickness in glaucoma [PDF]

open access: yesEye, 2018
Central corneal thickness (CCT) is an important parameter in the assessment of any potential glaucoma patient. While it affects prognosis in ocular hypertension, its value in patients diagnosed with glaucoma is less certain. There are several biological factors and genetic components that may influence glaucoma progression, which have been associated ...

Posterior Corneal Surface Stability after Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Keratomileusis

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2015
The purpose of this study was to evaluate posterior corneal surface variation after femtosecond laser-assisted keratomileusis in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism. Patients were evaluated by corneal tomography preoperatively and at 1, 6, and 12

Central Corneal Thickness in Latinos

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2003
To characterize central corneal thickness (CCT) in Latinos aged 40 or more years.A population-based cohort of Latinos from two census tracts in La Puente, California, underwent measurements of CCT and intraocular pressure (IOP). CCT was measured with an ultrasonic pachymeter, and IOP was measured by applanation tonometry.
