Specular microscopy in glaucoma patients.
The endothelial cells are one of the most important structures in a donor cornea. Morphology and concentration of endothelial cells must be carefully evaluated with a specular microscope before transplantation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the status of corneal endothelium in glaucoma patients. Prospective study included 50 patients suffering from glaucoma and 50 patients in control gro...
متن کاملContact and noncontact specular microscopy.
A contact specular microscope was compared with a noncontact endothelial camera on 20 eyes of 10 consecutive patients presenting for cataract surgery. No difference was found in the percentage of photographs acceptable for cell counting or the time for photography by one or other camera. A close correlation was found in cell density estimations by the 2 methods. Most patients prefer the noncont...
متن کامل[Specular microscopy of the corneal endothelium].
The endothelium of the normal corneas of 67 human subjects was studied in vivo with the specular microscope in order to quantify the method as a means of sampling the cell density of the tissue. It was found that (1) axial cell counts of the endothelium are reproducible in the same cornea after an interval of time; (2) the cell counts of the centre and periphery of the same cornea are similar; ...
متن کاملSpecular microscopy of the corneal endothelium
Although it is possible to observe the individual cells of the corneal endothelium with the use of the biomicroscope and specular illumination (Vogt, 1919), eye movements and the limited magnification available virtually preclude the use of this technique for systematic study of the endothelium. These problems have been largely overcome by the introduction of the specular microscope (Maurice, 1...
متن کاملCigarette Smoking and Pachymetry and Specular Microscopy Parameters of Cornea; A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Purpose: To investigate the effect of smoking on corneal parameters, including Endothelial Cell Density, Central Corneal Thickness, Percent of Hexogonality, and Coefficient of Variation. Methods: This study was a systematic review and meta-analysis of published articles until the end of February 2019. To do this, the first search was done for creditable medical databases such as PubMed, and ISI...
