The role of epithelial thickness mapping in corneal refractive surgery [PDF]

, 2021
Refractive surgery has stimulated significant progress in anterior segment imaging. Knowledge of epithelial thickness profile considerably increases the efficacy and safety of refractive procedures. This review aims to present new technologies evaluating

Ethanolic extract of Edamame (Glycine max L. merril) enhance second degree burn wound healing trough modulating of hydroxiproline levels and increasing epithelial thickness

Acta Marisiensis - Seria Medica, 2022
Objective: Burns has become a global health problem because it causes about 180.000 deaths worldwide every year. In developing countries, silver sulfadiazine cream is usually used as drug management for second-degree burns, but it is expensive, so ...

Corneal thickness, epithelial thickness and axial length differences in normal and high myopia [PDF]

BMC Ophthalmology, 2015
Corneal biometric parameters can possibly be influenced by high myopia (HM). The influence of HM on corneal thickness (CT), epithelial thickness (ET) has not yet been clearly established. The aim of this study is to observe ET, CT and axial length (AL) differences between in normal and subjects with HMs and to investigate factors influencing the ...

Applications of epithelial thickness mapping in corneal refractive surgery

Saudi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
In this review, we discuss the applications of epithelial thickness mapping in corneal refractive surgery. The review describes that the epithelial thickness profile is nonuniform in the normal eye, being thinner superiorly than inferiorly and thinner temporally than nasally.

Changes in Corneal Epithelial Thickness Induced by Topical Antiglaucoma Medications [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Corneal thickness measurement is important for assessing intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma. This study investigated the changes in corneal epithelial thickness (CET) induced by antiglaucoma medications and explored the factors affecting CET measurement.
