1
Purpose: To measure the recipient endothelial cell loss after the Melles technique for deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty.
2
Cell survival after lamellar keratoplasty may be expected to be better when compared with that following penetrating keratoplasty.
3
Rabbit lamellar keratoplasty showed that the barrier function of ATELC-Dynamic was intact, and there were no signs of epithelial shedding or neovascularization.
4
The UHR-OCT is a powerful approach that will allow us to further evaluate the tissue response to different processing techniques for posterior lamellar keratoplasty.
5
Purpose: To use optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a noninvasive tool to perform in situ characterization of eye bank corneal tissue processed for lamellar keratoplasty.
6
Three patients required deep lamellar keratoplasty (2 tectonic and 1 optical), and 2 underwent cornea gluing alone; all 5 of them were Chinese.
