A Case Report Illustrating the Postoperative Course of Descemetorhexis without Endothelial Keratoplasty with Topical Netarsudil Therapy

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2019
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common indication for corneal transplantation in the United States. Recently, descemetorhexis without endothelial keratoplasty (DWEK) or Descemet’s stripping only (DSO) has become an attractive ...

Topology-based deep-learning segmentation method for deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) surgical guidance using M-mode OCT data [PDF]

arXiv
Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) is a partial-thickness corneal transplant procedure used to treat corneal stromal diseases. A crucial step in this procedure is the precise separation of the deep stroma from Descemet's membrane (DM) using the Big Bubble technique.

Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices of Intensive Care Nurses Regarding Eye Care

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Care for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) must support all body systems. However, ICU nurses often focus on life‐threatening conditions, giving less attention to other critical areas such as eye care. Objective This study aims to determine ICU nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding eye care.

Cx43-hemichannel function and regulation in physiology and pathophysiology: insights from the bovine corneal endothelial cell system and beyond [PDF]

, 2014
Intercellular communication in primary bovine corneal endothelial cells (BCECs) is mainly driven by the release of extracellular ATP through Cx43 hemichannels.

Immunomodulation of salivary gland function due to cancer therapy

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional salivary glands (SG) are essential for maintaining oral health, and salivary dysfunction is a persistent major clinical challenge. Several cancer therapies also have off‐target effects leading to SG dysfunction. Recent advances highlight the role of SG immune populations in homeostasis, dysfunction and gland regeneration.

Phase 2 randomized, double-masked, vehicle-controlled trial of recombinant human nerve growth factor for neurotrophic keratitis [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical recombinant human nerve growth factor (rhNGF) for treating moderate-to-severe neurotrophic keratitis (NK), a rare degenerative corneal disease resulting from impaired corneal innervation.

Digital interferometric demodulation of Placido mires applied to corneal topography [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
This paper presents a novel digital interferometric method to demodulate Placido fringe patterns. This is a synchronous method which uses a computer-stored conic-wavefront as demodulating reference. Here we focus on the experimental aspects to phase-demodulate Placido mires applied to corneal topography.
