Preoperative surgeon evaluation of corneal endothelial status: the Viability Control of Human Endothelial Cells before Keratoplasty (V-CHECK) study protocol

BMJ Open Ophthalmology, 2023
Introduction The success of keratoplasty strongly depends on the health status of the transplanted endothelial cells. Donor corneal tissues are routinely screened for endothelial damage before shipment; however, surgical teams have currently no means of ...

Comparative outcomes of penetrating and component endothelial cell corneal allografts in outbred sheep [PDF]

, 2012
Lamellar (component-cell) corneal transplantation is replacing penetrating keratoplasty for some corneal disorders in humans; but the relative risks of immunological graft rejection for the two procedures are uncertain.

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.

Pathological classification of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy into several types and their relationships with CTG18.1 expansion repeats

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 2, Page 182-196, June 2026.
Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common primary disease of the corneal endothelium and the leading indication for corneal transplantation in Western countries. It is characterized by progressive accumulation, over two to three decades, of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in Descemet's membrane (DM ...

The Impact of Real‐Time Data Analytics on Infection Prevention and Control Practices in Ophthalmology: A Nursing Perspective on Patient Outcomes and Cost‐Effectiveness

Nursing &Health Sciences, Volume 28, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Ophthalmic surgeries pose infection risks. Traditional control methods rely on manual monitoring, creating a need for more precise, data‐driven nursing models. This study evaluated the effectiveness of real‐time data analysis in improving ophthalmic infection prevention and control outcomes.
