Recurrent Corneal Erosion Syndrome

Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
Recurrent corneal erosion syndrome is characterized by repeated episodes of sudden onset of pain usually upon awakening or at night because of detachment of the weakly adhered corneal epithelium. Most of the cases can be attributed to trauma or superficial corneal dystrophies. Because of the variable clinical course, the disease causes much frustration

Recurrent corneal erosion: Clinical features [PDF]

Eye, 1994
The clinical features of a group of 30 patients with recalcitrant recurrent corneal erosions (i.e. those who failed to respond to conventional therapy) were evaluated. Associated ocular and facial abnormalities were documented. Meibomian gland dysfunction was present in all patients as manifest by dropout and inspissation of the meibomian glands ...

Phototherapeutic keratectomy for recurrent corneal erosions [PDF]

Eye, 1994
Recurrent corneal erosion may be a difficult disorder to treat, with a number of patients suffering persistent symptoms despite conventional therapy. We present a series of 15 patients (17 eyes) who underwent excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) for recurrent corneal erosion.

Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,
