Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates corneal neurotization (CN), a new surgical method to restore healthy nerve function to the cornea affected by neurotrophic keratopathy (NK), which arises from lost corneal innervation.
- - Existing treatments mainly focus on preventing damage to the cornea rather than treating the root cause of sensation loss, which makes CN a significant advancement in the field.
- - The review discusses current research, including clinical studies and case reports, assessing the effectiveness of CN as a potentially permanent solution for NK, aiming to improve ocular surface health.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of corneal neurotisation using sural nerve graft coaptation of the contralateral supratrochlear nerve in unilateral neurotrophic keratopathy and corneal anesthesia. Corneal neuralization has emerged as a potential option in the treatment of neurotropic keratopathy, however not free from the predicament. We evaluated the long-term outcome of corneal neurotisation in the treatment of unresponsive unilateral neurotropic keratopathy using surgical variations to mimic and expedient the surgical procedure.
