One hundred-year-old human corneal and transplanted corneal graft endothelium

FOLLOW UP OF ONE HUNDRED CORNEAL AND SCLERAL RUPTURES DURING 1988-1990

In a retrospective study, one hundred corneosclerallaceration (CSL) cases were managed at Zahedan Ophthalmic Center from 1988-1990. Our findings showed that CSL is more commonly seen in young and male patients. Seasonal variation in CSL frequency with higher prevalence in the fust half of the years was evident. Also it was found that cataract was more common in corneal lacerations while hyp...

Corneal thickness changes after corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus and corneal ectasia: one-year results.

PURPOSE To determine the changes in corneal thickness over time after corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) for keratoconus and corneal ectasia. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery subspecialty practice. DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS Corneal thickness at the apex, thinnest point, and pupil center were measured using Scheimpflug imaging (Pentacam) at base...

Corneal topography indices after corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus and corneal ectasia: one-year results.

PURPOSE To evaluate changes in corneal topography indices after corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) in patients with keratoconus and corneal ectasia and analyze associations of these changes with visual acuity. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery subspecialty practice. DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS Corneal collagen crosslinking was performed in eyes wi...

Cell Pattern in Adult Human Corneal Endothelium

A review of the current data on the cell density of normal adult human endothelial cells was carried out in order to establish some common parameters appearing in the different considered populations. From the analysis of cell growth patterns, it is inferred that the cell aging rate is similar for each of the different considered populations. Also, the morphology, the cell distribution and the ...
