The objective is to present a meticulously detailed case, including imaging and anterior optical coherence tomography (OCT), to enhance understanding and recognition of this phenomenon.
Methods: A detailed case presentation involving a 50-year-old male, 3 years post-DSAEK transplantation for endothelial damage resulting from intraocular surgeries.
Background: Current treatments for several corneal lesions show limited efficacy. Here we report the clinical evaluation of the efficacy of a novel eye drop preparation produced in a public cord blood (CB) bank.
Materials And Methods: In a multicentre, retrospective, consecutive case study we evaluated 33 patients (46 eyes) unresponsive to conventional treatments who required urgent intervention.
Objective: To report complete resolution of extensive conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia in a patient treated with topical mitomycin C.
Methods: Based on clinical examination, impression cytology was performed on the corneal-conjunctival lesion. Management consisted of topical mitomycin 0.
