Corneal Nerve Assessment by Aesthesiometry: History, Advancements, and Future Directions.

The measurement of corneal sensation allows clinicians to assess the status of corneal innervation and serves as a crucial indicator of corneal disease and eye health. Many devices are available to assess corneal sensation, including the Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometer, the Belmonte Aesthesiometer, the Swiss Liquid Jet Aesthesiometer, and the newly introduced Corneal Esthesiometer Brill. Increasing the clinical use of in vivo confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography will allow for greater insight into the diagnosis, classification, and monitoring of ocular surface diseases such as neurotrophic keratopathy; however, formal esthesiometric measurement remains necessary to assess the functional status of corneal nerves.

Vet Ophthalmol
May 2018
Department of Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Oregon State University, 158 Magruder Hall, Corvallis, OR, USA.
Objective: To evaluate whether topical ocular application of 1% morphine sulfate would change corneal sensitivity and to identify the duration of action.
Animal Studied: Eight healthy adult horses.
Procedure: Corneal touch threshold (CTT) was measured in the center of one randomly selected eye of each horse by Cochet-Bonnet esthesiometer (Luneau Cochet-Bonnet Esthesiometer; Western Ophthalmics, Lynnwood, WA, USA).
