Collagenase in Corneal Ulcerations
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1969Collagenase activity was found in the corneal epithelium of ten cases of corneal diseases associated with either acute or chronic corneal ulcerations. Sixteen cases, which included autopsy corneas, nondiseased corneas, and diseased corneas wihout ulcerations failed to reveal detectable activity.

Noninfected Corneal Ulceration
International Ophthalmology Clinics, 1984The pathogenesis of noninfected corneal ulcers consistently relates to persistent or extensive epithelial defects, concomitant with stromal inflammatory cell infiltration and enzymatic degradation of collagen and ground substance. The therapeutic approaches to these disorders may be considered on three levels: (1) determination of etiology and ...

A patient sustained a corneal abrasion from organic material, used an antibioticcorticosteroid ointment, and developed a corneal ulcer. The common contaminant Pullularia pullulans was isolated from corneal scrapings on two separate occasions. Topical amphotericin B application was ineffective despite in vitro sensitivity.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1984
To the Editor. —I work in an area of the world where fungus corneal ulcers are common. The results of treatment have been uniformly disappointing. Despite vigorous treatment (including cautery with carbolic acid, silver nitrate, and iodine, and antifungal agents such as amphotericin B, nystatin, and clotrimazole), the ulcer usually progresses ...

Community Care of Corneal Ulcers
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1992Because of increasing concern about the appropriate and cost-effective use of eye care services and procedures, several organizations have sought to arrive at practice guidelines or practice patterns from which physicians can draw guidance. To assess the potential effectiveness of such guidelines, we reviewed the care of patients with corneal ulcers ...

Corneal cross-linking in the treatment of corneal ulcers
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2016New treatments for corneal ulcers are needed to address challenges with antibiotic resistance, cost, and specificity requiring timely pathogen identification. This review assesses the evidence regarding safety and efficacy of corneal cross-linking (CXL) as an adjunct or stand-alone treatment.To date approximately 200 clinical cases of CXL used with ...

Aeromonas Hydrophila Corneal Ulcer
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1978Two healthy men developed acute corneal ulcers caused by Aeromonas hydrophila after receiving traumatic foreign body injuries to the cornea. The ulcers resolved after treatment for gram-negative bacterial corneal ulceration. A history of contamination by water, soil, or material from an aquatic source was a significant factor in each case.

Corneal Infection and Ulceration
2016Microbial keratitis is a sight-threatening infection of the cornea. Without timely treatment, it can lead to corneal perforation, endophthalmitis, and even loss of the eye. Even with treatment, scar resulting in permanent vision loss is common. The epidemiology of these cornea infections varies with geographic region, occupation, and socioeconomic ...
