PURPOSE To investigate whether corneal graft survival could be improved by topical or subconjunctival bevacizumab in a murine model of vascularized high-risk corneal transplantation. METHODS Before corneal transplantation, intrastromal sutures were placed for 2 weeks in the corneas of BALB/c mice, inducing intense angiogenesis. Allogeneic corneal transplantation was performed using C57BL/6 do...

background: to compare the efficacy of subconjunctival administration of bevacizumab and different doses of sunitinib malate in reducing corneal neovascularization (cnv). materials and methods: in this experimental study, central corneal cauterization was created in the right eye of fifty male sprague–dawley rats. on day 1 (1 week after cauterization), rats were randomly assigned into five trea...

A 23-year-old man presented to La Paz Hospital complaining of a “worm moving in his eye.” He was otherwise healthy. On examination under natural light a mobile worm was seen in the superior subconjunctival space.
