Keratorefractive effect of microwave keratoplasty on human corneas.
J Cataract Refract Surg
March 2010
Purpose: To determine the change in dioptric power on excised human corneoscleral buttons after microwave keratoplasty application and to determine the qualitative effect on the cornea using histology and scanning electron microscopy.
Setting: Department of Academic Ophthalmology, Rayne Institute, St. Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Cellular effects of mitomycin-C on human corneas after photorefractive keratectomy.
J Cataract Refract Surg
October 2006
Purpose: To investigate the effects of mitomycin-C (MMC) on epithelial and keratocyte cell kinetics after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) using an in vitro human cornea model.
Setting: Department of Academic Ophthalmology, Rayne Institute, St. Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
In vitro human corneal model to investigate stromal epithelial interactions following refractive surgery.
J Cataract Refract Surg
September 2005
Purpose: To develop an in vitro human corneal model to evaluate stromal epithelial interactions following corneal refractive surgical procedures.
Setting: Department of Academic Ophthalmology, Rayne Institute, St. Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of topical keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) on wound healing after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).
Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Rayne Institute, St. Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom, St.
Purpose: The theoretical effects on corneal transparency induced by changes in collagen fibril packing following phototherapeutic keratectomy were compared to changes in objective measurements of haze.
Methods: Phototherapeutic keratectomy was performed on the right eyes of four young rabbits; left eyes were used as controls. Postoperative slit-lamp measurements of haze were taken at regular intervals up to 19 months.
