Corneal Allograft Rejection: Immunopathogenesis to Therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Corneal transplantation is among the most successful solid organ transplants. However, despite low rejection rates of grafts in the ‘low-risk’ setting, rejection can be as high as 70% when grafted into ‘high-risk’ recipient beds. Under normal homeostatic

Long‐Term Graft Survival and Visual Outcomes in Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK): A Narrative Review

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) selectively replaces the scarred or diseased corneal stroma, while preserving healthy endothelium, thus providing an alternative to penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for patients with stromal disorders. Despite its recognized advantages, DALK has not become as widely adopted as anticipated over the past decades ...

Electrospun Poly (Glycerol Sebacate) (PGS) Membranes for Corneal Tissue Engineering

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 310, Issue 11, November 2025.
Fibrous PGS membranes that are composed of homogenous fibers are fabricated by electrospinning. Durability and permeability of the membranes closely resemble the natural cornea. Thereby, successfully supporting the proliferation of human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) and human corneal endothelial cells (HCEndC).

Presbyopia Correction in Lens Replacement Surgery: A Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 668-681, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Presbyopia affects approximately 1.8 billion individuals globally, posing significant challenges as life expectancy and near‐vision demands, particularly with mobile phone use, grow. Addressing presbyopia during lens replacement surgery has become a key focus for cataract surgeons, aiming to reduce dependence on corrective eyewear. This review
