Posterior corneal surface stability after femtosecond laser-assisted keratomileusis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The purpose of this study was to evaluate posterior corneal surface variation after femtosecond laser-assisted keratomileusis in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism. Patients were evaluated by corneal tomography preoperatively and at 1, 6, and 12

Tissue Engineering of Corneal Endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Functional Biomaterials, 2012
Human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) do not replicate after wounding. Therefore, corneal endothelial deficiency can result in irreversible corneal edema. Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) allows selective replacement of the diseased corneal endothelium.

Fuchs Dystrophy and Cataract: Diagnosis, Evaluation and Treatment

open access: yesOphthalmology and Therapy, 2023
Corneal endothelium plays an important role in maintaining hydration homeostasis and clarity of the cornea. Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) affects the corneal endothelium resulting in edema and characteristic excrescences on the Descemet’s ...

Specular microscopy in clinical practice

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Specular microscopy is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that allows for in vivo evaluation of corneal endothelium in health and various diseased states. Endothelial imaging helps in the diagnosis and management of several endothelial disorders.

Minocycline is cytoprotective in human corneal endothelial cells and induces anti-apoptotic B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Introduction Loss of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) is one major factor limiting transplant clarity and survival after keratoplasty. Amongst other factors, apoptosis due to cellular stress is responsible for these problems.

Effect of cell density on thrombin binding to a specific site on bovine vascular endothelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
We studied thrombin binding to proliferating and confluent endothelial cells derived from bovine vascular endothelium. [125]thrombin was incubated with nonconfluent or confluent endothelial cells and both the total amount bound and the amount linked in a

Riboflavin concentration in corneal stroma after intracameral injection [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
AIM:To evaluate the enrichment of riboflavin in the corneal stroma after intracameral injection to research the barrier ability of the corneal endothelium to riboflavin in vivo.METHODS:The right eyes of 30 New Zealand white rabbits were divided into ...

Glycosaminoglycans in the human cornea: age-related changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
AIM: To investigate possible age-related changes in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the human cornea. The substances today called GAGs were previously referred to as mucopolysaccharides.

Cataract Extraction and the Corneal Endothelium

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology, 1976
We examined and photographed the central corneal endothelium of 16 patients with the clinical specular microscope before and at intervals after cataract extraction. No detectable loss of the endothelial cells occurred in 75% of the patients, including 12 routine intracapsular cryoextractions and four phacoemulsifications of soft cataracts in young ...
