Corneal Epithelial Thickness Mapping: A Major Review [PDF]
The corneal epithelium (CE) is the outermost layer of the cornea with constant turnover, relative stability, remarkable plasticity, and compensatory properties to mask alterations in the underlying stroma.

Understanding Corneal Epithelial Thickness Mapping.
Abstract Corneal epithelial thickness (CET) and the regional variations in response to changes in corneal architecture and biomechanics have recently drawn the interest of corneal surgeons. Corneal epithelium possesses the tremendous capability of remodeling and changing its thickness.

Corneal Epithelial Thickness in Sjogren's Disease: A Pilot Study. [PDF]
This study was to assess corneal epithelial thickness (CET) in patients with Sjogren's disease (SjD).A retrospective chart review was conducted of SjD patients from September 2021 to January 2022. Patient demographics, unanesthetized Schirmer's test, serologic markers, and symptoms as measured by the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) were reviewed ...

The Corneal Epithelial Thickness Profile in a Healthy Saudi Population. [PDF]
Epithelial mapping appears to be a valuable technique for a corneal and refractive surgeon, useful for distinguishing corneas with the true presence of corneal ectasia from those that are suspicious. Interpreting the epithelial thickness map data requires an understanding of corneal epithelial thickness (CET) normal values and variable patterns. Unlike
