Rips in the Pigment Epithelium

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1983
Rips of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) are an uncommon complication of RPE detachment. We suspect that RPE rips are the result of tractional forces acting along the margin of the detached RPE, and that the risk of tearing is greatly enhanced by laser photocoagulation.

Spiral prominence epithelium

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1989
AbstractRecent studies have shown neuroendocrine-type cells in human spiral prominence epithelium. A light microscopic and ultrastructural study was made on the guinea pig spiral prominence epithelium to try and identify neuroendocrine cells. The study showed that such cells were not present in the guinea pig spiral prominence epithelium.

Optics of the Corneal Epithelium

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1993
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The refractive effect of the corneal epithelium in relation to the cornea as a whole is relatively unknown, yet it may affect the efficacy of keratorefractive surgical procedures, most notably photorefractive keratectomy and epikeratoplasty. This article investigates the retractive effect of the epithelium on the cornea.
