Establishment of DMEK for bullous keratopahty and analysis of postoperative visual function [PDF]

open access: yes
本研究では、最先端の角膜内皮移植である、DMEK(Descemet’s Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty)の術式の確立と術後視機能の解析を試みた。DMEKとは、水疱性角膜症に対する角膜内皮のみを移植する技術であり、術後視力が良く、回復が早く、拒絶反応が生じないなど様々な利点を有するが、難易度が高いのが問題である。今回の研究では、当初の予定のごとく、DMEKの際のデスメ膜を剥離する器具、微細な空気を注入する器具などを開発することが出来た。さらに ...

Pathological Interplay of ROS With Myofibroblasts: An Impediment to Corneal Restitution

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Myofibroblasts are morphologically similar cells with diverse origins that exhibit characteristics of both fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. Following insults, myofibroblasts play critical roles in tissue reintegration and restitution. However, their prolonged presence and activity impede physiological recovery, leading to persistent or progressive ...

Strategies for Differentiation of Corneal Endothelial Cells From Stem Cells: Current Advances and Challenges

open access: yesStem Cells International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The corneal endothelium, located in the posterior layer of the cornea, is critical to the maintenance of corneal clarity. Due to the limited proliferative capacity of the corneal endothelium, cell loss or damage can affect visual health. The lack of healthy corneal donors worldwide limits corneal transplantation, which is still the most successful ...

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
