[Amniotic membrane transplantation for oculopalpebral and reconstructive surgery].

Introduction: Amniotic membrane has been used for many years for ocular surface defects. It is also commonly used in laboratories for cellular growth. Amniotic membrane has antiadhesive properties, can promote epithelialization, and decrease neovascularization, inflammation, and fibrosis.

Idiopathic cyclitic retrolental membrane in children.

Management of microphthalmos and anophthalmos: prosthetic experience.
