Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term outcome of keratolimbal allograft with or without penetrating keratoplasty for total limbal stem cell deficiency

TL;DR: Ambulatory vision for a period of more than 2 years can be achieved by KLAL with or without PKP in eyes with severe ocular surface disorders caused by total LSCD, however, a progressive decline of the visual outcome and graft survival is evident with time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ex vivo expansion of limbal epithelial stem cells: amniotic membrane serving as a stem cell niche.
TL;DR: This review summarizes the published literature data collectively explaining how amniotic membrane is an ideal biological substrate that can help maintain and support the expansion of limbal epithelial stem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
The challenge of dry eye diagnosis
Giacomo Savini,Pinita Prabhawasat,Takashi Kojima,Martin Grueterich,Edgar M. Espana,Eiki Goto +5 more
TL;DR: This review attempts to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of both traditional tests and innovative noninvasive procedures for the diagnosis of dry eye, including tear meniscus height measurement, corneal topography, functional visual acuity, tear interferometry, tear evaporimetry and tear osmolarity assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotypic study of a case with successful transplantation of ex vivo expanded human limbal epithelium for unilateral total limbal stem cell deficiency.
TL;DR: The preservation of a limbal epithelial phenotype on the reconstructed corneal surface indicates that amniotic basement membrane provides a unique stromal environment conducive to the preservation and expansion of lim bal epithelial progenitor cells.
Journal Article
Connexin 43 Expression and Proliferation of Human Limbal Epithelium on Intact and Denuded Amniotic Membrane
TL;DR: Data indicate that denudation of the devitalized amniotic epithelium to expose its basement membrane might be a microenvironmental cue to promote TAC differentiation.
