Immunology of the Ocular Surface
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2008The ocular surface immunity is a remarkable combination of the innate immune and adaptive immune systems, designed to prevent microbial invasion while minimizing damage to delicate ocular tissue. The innate immune system uses a variety of methods to minimize microorganism invasion, including mechanical tissue barriers and production of antimicrobial ...

Wound healing after LASIK sometimes compromises homeostasis of the ocular surface. Diffuse lamellar keratitis is a post-LASIK inflammatory condition in the interface that appears during the first week after LASIK. The etiology of diffuse lamellar keratitis is unknown, but the association with allergic reaction to detergent, bacteria, and other ...

The role of nitric oxide in ocular surface physiology and pathophysiology.
The ocular surface, 2021Nitric oxide (NO) has a wide array of biological functions including the regulation of vascular tone, neurotransmission, immunomodulation, stimulation of proinflammatory cytokine expression and antimicrobial action. These functions may depend on the type

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1984
To the Editor. —Kinoshita et al1should be congratulated for further elucidating some aspects of ocular surface disease. Their use of a more sensitive indicator for mucinlike glycoproteins is a distinct step forward. The fact that this type of material is seen in the tears of patients with significantly decreased conjunctival goblet cells is ...

Flammability of Ocular Surface Lubricants
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2023Purpose: Surgical fires pose a substantial risk to patients and can cause significant injury, especially in oculofacial surgery. Ocular surface lubricants can potentially act as fuel for an operating room fire. We present an experimental analysis of the flammability of 9 commonly used ophthalmic lubricants under 4 ignition ...

The Ocular Surface in Aniridia
2015In aniridia, ocular surface alterations arise after several years, in distinction to congenital anomalies such as absence of the iris and cataract. In patients with aniridia, the cornea is transparent at birth and gradually loses transparency from 18 to 20 years of age due to the formation of a superficial vascular pannus determined by limbal stem cell

Aniridia and the Ocular Surface
The Ocular Surface, 2004©2004 Ethis Communications, Inc. All rights reserved. everal thousand years ago, Homo sapiens began to produce sounds to express verbal symbols of concrete and abstract concepts. They were sometimes mesmerized by the rainbow, which must have represented a happy moment: the tempest was over, it was still day, the sun was shining, and some very beautiful

The Effects of LASIK on the Ocular Surface
The Ocular Surface, 2004Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) can affect corneal sensation, aqueous tear production, wound healing, and the incidence of corneal erosions. Virtually all patients experience dry eye at least transiently after LASIK. Because intact corneal sensation drives tear production, denervation associated with the LASIK procedure is the most significant ...

Ocular surface squamous neoplasia
Survey of Ophthalmology, 1995Ocular surface squamous neoplasia presents as a spectrum from simple dysplasia to carcinoma in situ to invasive squamous cell carcinoma involving the conjunctiva as well as the cornea. It is a distinct clinical entity, although it has been known by a variety of different names throughout the literature.
