Genome-wide Linkage Scan in Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2009
To perform a genome-wide linkage screen with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) linkage panel to identify regions of genetic linkage in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) and to analyze affected individuals for mutations in the COL8A2 gene.Ninety-two individuals from 22 families with FECD were identified from our multiplex FECD family ...

Biocompatibility of Genetically‐Engineered Pig Cornea in Corneal Xenotransplantation: Preliminary In Vitro Study

open access: yesXenotransplantation, Volume 32, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction We aimed to evaluate biophysical compatibility of corneal endothelial cells in genetically‐engineered (GE) pigs to identify the best candidate for in vivo nonhuman primate (NHP) study and to collect baseline data for future clinical trials from a biological function perspective.

Corneal amyloid staining after trypan blue in Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports
Purpose: This case report seeks to highlight impressive photographs of amyloid staining with trypan blue that persisted after DMEK surgery with 3 years follow-up. This has only been reported in the literature twice previously, and may have contributed to

Corneal endothelial cell dysfunction: etiologies and management

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2018
A transparent cornea is essential for the formation of a clear image on the retina. The human cornea is arranged into well-organized layers, and each layer plays a significant role in maintaining the transparency and viability of the tissue.

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

Long-term results of corneal wedge resections for the correction of high astigmatism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We retrospectively evaluated 41 corneal wedge resections, performed for the correction of high astigmatism in 40 patients who were spectacle and contact lens intolerant. Keratometric astigmatism decreased from an average of 11.7 diopters (range 5 to 22.5
