3116 A new technique for assessing corneal wound healing and transparency after PRK
PURPOSE: Ah the population of puticnts undergoing current rcfractivc procedures increases, il is now important for rliniciaos of all beckgmunds to know the various FDA and DHSS approved topical prcpantions which are roudnely used in the managemeot of tyes after Radial Kcretotomy (RK) sod IIxc:imer laser photorefractive kcratectomy (PRK). METIIODS: This paper prcsentn details of the various effe...
متن کاملCorneal wound healing after laser vision correction.
Any trauma can trigger a cascade of responses in tissues, with the purpose of safeguarding the integrity of the organ affected by the trauma and of preventing possible damage to nearby organs. Subsequently, the body tries to restore the function of the organ affected. The introduction of the excimer laser for keratorefractive surgery has changed the treatment landscape for correcting refractive...

Bowman’s layer is composed of 22nm heterotypical type I collagen fibrils, which are randomly orientated (mean direction 45o to the corneal surface). Immediately beneath Bowman’s membrane, the cornea is arranged such that there are about 300 lamellae centrally and 500 lamellae peripherally. Each is composed of uniformly paralleldirected, 25nm heterotypical type I collagen fibrils with flattened ...

The corneal surface is, without question, the most specialised 123 mm2* of the body's surface. It forms an integral part of the ocular surface with which it shares several anatomical and physiological attributes. Like the rest ofthe body surface, it is in a state of constant 'healing'. Squamous epithelial cells are continually shed into the tear pool and simultaneously replenished by cells movi...

eyf served as a control. Intraperitoneal [Ii ]-thyeidine was injected. Three eyes were studied histologically and autoradiographically at 1 hr, 3 hr. 6 hr. 9 hr, 12 hr, 24 hr, 2 d, 3 d, 9 d, 12 d, 15 d, 18 d and 21 d. The epithelial cells were scanned from limbus to limbus. Analysis of variance and linear regression (SPSS package) were used for statistical evaluation. Results: The cells prolife...
