AB Strong evidence suggests that corneal crosslinking is a safe procedure capable of stopping or slowing down the progression of keratoconus, avoiding visual loss associated with progression, and delaying or preventing the need for corneal transplantation. The progressive and chronic nature of the disease makes the option for prompt crosslinking upon keratoconus diagnosis in a pediatric patient valid. Copyright (C) 2022 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

This study describes the surgical outcomes of selective endothelialectomy in Peters anomaly (SEPA), a relatively new technique to manage Peters anomaly (PA). Methods: This study included 34 eyes of 28 children who had a visually significant posterior corneal defect due to PA and underwent SEPA between 2012 and 2019. A selective endothelialectomy from the posterior corneal defect was performed while preserving Descemet membrane.

The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of subbasal corneal nerve plexus parameters of the inferior whorl compared with the central cornea with in vivo corneal confocal microscopy and to investigate the impact of inferior whorl pattern complexity on reproducibility. Methods: Subbasal corneal nerves of healthy controls (n = 10) and patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (n = 10) were imaged with a laser scanning confocal microscope.

The purpose of this study was to describe the feasibility of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) as a treatment modality for spontaneous detachment of DM (DMD) decades after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for keratoconus. Methods: We describe the clinical characteristics and therapeutic surgical approach in 6 eyes of 5 patients with DMD.

The combination of glaucoma drainage device (GDI), pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), and corneal transplantation is well reported in adults. However, little is known about the outcomes of such combined procedures in pediatric patients. We present a retrospective, single-center study to evaluate the safety and outcomes of concurrent GDI and/or PPV with corneal transplantation in patients 18 years and younger.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel class of endogenous noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression through the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanism. CircRNA-associated-ceRNA networks are closely related to oxidative stress-related diseases. Oxidative stress-induced dysfunction of the corneal endothelium (CE) is a major pathological feature in many corneal diseases.

AB Endothelial keratoplasty (EK), including Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty and Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty, is now the most performed corneal transplant procedure in the United States. Intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation and glaucoma are common complications and can cause irreversible vision loss and corneal graft failure.
