Establishing a Porcine Eye Model for Manual Sub‐Bowman Layer Photorefractive Keratomileusis
Objective. To establish a porcine eye model for manual sub‐Bowman layer photorefractive keratomileusis (SBPRK), which is a reformed surface ablation refractive surgery that results in preserving the corneal Bowman layer (BL). Methods. The SBPRK group consisted of eleven eyes of 8 healthy pigs with BL flaps by mechanical technique followed by laser ...

Myopia (near-sightedness or short-sightedness) is a condition in which the refractive power of the eye is greater than required. The most frequent complaint of people with myopia is blurred distance vision, which can be eliminated by conventional optical aids such as spectacles or contact lenses, or by refractive surgery procedures such as ...

Short-Term Corneal Endothelial Changes after Laser-Assisted Subepithelial Keratectomy [PDF]
To investigate the short-term effects of laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) on the corneal endothelium, 10 patients undergoing LASEK for myopia without complications (20 eyes) were observed. Each eye was evaluated by slit-lamp biomicroscopy and non-contact specular microscopy pre-operatively, and at 15 min, 1 day and 1 week post ...

ABSTRACT Objective To assess if an inexpensive, commercially available ultraviolet C (UV‐C) light device with a peak emission of 275 nm can inhibit equine keratomycosis‐associated pathogens located at different corneal depths in an ex vivo model. Methods A controlled, randomized experimental design.

Threshold Values of Myopic Anisometropia Causing Loss of Stereopsis
Purpose. The aim of the study was to determine the threshold values of myopic anisometropia that lead to the loss of stereoacuity in most of patients. Materials and Methods. Forty healthy subjects were included in the study. The inclusion criteria were as follows: lack of any functional or morphological ophthalmological disorders, or detectable damage ...

Purpose. To assess the efficacy of applying bandage contact lens (BCL) in reducing the fibrotic healing response of flap margins following femtosecond laser in situ keratomileusis (FS‐LASIK). Methods. In this prospective, randomized, interventional, observer‐masked trial, 41 patients (82 eyes) with myopia and/or myopic astigmatism were scheduled to ...

Pathological Interplay of ROS With Myofibroblasts: An Impediment to Corneal Restitution
Myofibroblasts are morphologically similar cells with diverse origins that exhibit characteristics of both fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. Following insults, myofibroblasts play critical roles in tissue reintegration and restitution. However, their prolonged presence and activity impede physiological recovery, leading to persistent or progressive ...

In Vivo Confocal Microscopy of Cornea in Patients with Terrien’s Marginal Corneal Degeneration
This study was aimed at observing the morphological changes of the cornea with ocular in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) in patients with Terrien’s marginal degeneration (TMD). Ten patients (20 eyes) with TMD treated in the Department of Ophthalmology, Xiangya Hospital, and 10 healthy controls (20 eyes) were included in the current study.
