Refining laissez‐faire treatment of periocular tumour defects by exploring the impact of defect localization and geometry on the healing process

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Large lower eyelid defects resulting from tumour removal are frequently reconstructed using a tarsoconjunctival flap from the upper eyelid together with an overlying free skin graft, the so‐called Hughes procedure. One disadvantage of this technique is that the tarsoconjunctival flap occludes the eye during the revascularization of ...

Aniridia‐associated keratopathy: Clinical and molecular mechanisms of disease progression and emerging therapeutic targets

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital aniridia is a rare genetic disorder primarily caused by pathogenic variants of the PAX6 gene. It leads to various panocular anomalies, including aniridia‐associated keratopathy (AAK). This review highlights recent insights into its pathogenesis, focusing on clinical staging, microstructural changes in the cornea and molecular ...
