Central corneal endothelial photographs were taken for 15 persons who had worn polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) contact lenses for 7-15 yr and for a nonwearing control group matched for age and sex. An individual cell area analysis was made from the cell tracings. Significant endothelial polymegathism was noted for each member of the contact lens wearing group. PMMA wearers showed an average coeff...

BACKGROUND The corneal endothelial structure may be changed in diabetic patients, but the results were variable. OBJECTIVE To compare the corneal endothelial structure including endothelial cell density, polymorphism, andpleomorphism, in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. MATERIAL AND METHOD The corneal endothelial structure of diabetic and non-diabetic subjects were measured by specular m...

The purpose of the study was to investigate the changes in the endothelial cell count and cell’s polymegathism and pleomorphism after selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in open-angle glaucoma (OAG). SLT has been performed on 18 patients (22 eyes). Each patient underwent confocal microscopy 1 h prior to the laser surgery and then 1 h, 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month after SLT. The obtained microgr...

purpose: to evaluate the corneal endothelial cell density and polymegathism one year after laser assisted keratomileusis using mitomycin c. methods: one hundred and three eyes from 52 patients who underwent laser assisted sub-epithelial keratomileusis using mitomycin c 0.02% for 30 seconds entered this study. corneal endothelial cells were evaluated using specular microscopy before and one year...

Aim. To investigate corneal endothelial cell morphological in children with type 1 diabetes and to determine the systemic and local factors that contribute to these changes. Methods. One hundred sixty eyes of 80 children with type 1 diabetes and 80 eyes of 40 normal children as a control during the period from July 2015 to February 2016 underwent full clinical and ophthalmologic examination. We...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Endothelial cells of the donor cornea are known to be affected quantitatively and qualitatively in different pathological conditions after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and this has direct effect on the clarity of vision obtained after PK. This study was undertaken to analyze the qualitative and quantitative changes in donor endothelial cells before and after PK in diffe...
