Corneal femtosecond laser keratotomy results in isolated stromal injury and favorable wound-healing response.
PURPOSE To examine the corneal repair response after intrastromal femtosecond (fs) laser keratotomy. METHODS Twelve rabbits underwent monocular intrastromal keratotomy performed with an fs laser at a preoperatively determined corneal depth of 160 to 200 microm. The fs laser-induced corneal repair response was compared with that of nonoperated control eyes and eyes treated with photorefractive...
متن کاملIn vitro studies of corneal wound healing: epithelial-endothelial interactions.
Full-thickness explants of rabbit cornea were grown in organ culture and the migratory behavior of both epithelium and endothelium was observed under different experimental conditions. Following explantation, epithelial migration along the cut surface of the stroma began within six hours. By 24 hours, the epithelium reached the cut edge of Descemet's membrane and made contact with the endotheli...
متن کاملCorneal epithelial wound healing.
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...
متن کاملConjunctival epithelial wound healing.
In vivo conjunctival epithelial healing in albino rabbits was investigated by light microscopy following both n-heptanol and trephined conjunctival wounding. Reepithelialization occurred faster following n-heptanol treatment (3 days) versus trephination (6-7 days). No goblet cells were present in the migrating epithelium during reepithelialization. After 1 day of wounding, goblet cells disappea...
متن کاملEpithelial Regeneration and Wound Healing
SAINT in 1929 documented the experimental studies that had been carried out up to that date on the healing of oesophageal wounds. The reported observations dealt with the relatively long-term results, and little attention was paid to the early changes that occurred during the period immediately following the infliction of the wound. Recently, Malm (1951) made observations following surgical exp...
