Repairing Damaged Corneas With Stem Cells:
From Boston’s Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary comes the report of an exciting Phase 1 trial using a patient’s own eye stem cells to repair a chemically burned cornea. #cornea #chemicalburns #cornealtransplantation #limbus #stemcells #eye

Enjoy some guttae for #FuchsFriday #EyePath #cornea #MedEd #ophthalmology @pathology
Description: High power view of Descemet membrane. PAS stain (good for basement membrane). Embedded on edge with 3 layers visible. Thickening and lamination (layering). A few exophytic guttae (lumps), with further guttae visible buried within the lamination.
PAS isn't a great stain for appreciating nuclei, but there are a few surviving endothelial cells on the upper piece.

As my website is up again after a quite a bit of downtime it's time to promote it again 🙂
One of the subjects on my weblog is my experiences with the eye condition #keratoconus. So anyone with this disease and anyone interested:

Here's a bread and butter #EyePath #cornea case. I'll post 4 images, and then annotate each one in the comments. @pathology
#ophthalmology #pathology #tootorial #cornea #eyepath
1. It's a #cornea. The epithelium is on the top right, above the green line. Bowman's layer (not very visible) and stroma are below the green line. Note how irregular the deepest part of the tissue is, with the blue line. That's because...
2. This is an anterior lamellar keratoplasty. The stroma has been peeled off Descemet membrane and the endothelium, leaving them behind (in the patient).
3. The dark pink "crunchy" blobs are abnormal stromal deposits.
I'll post a special stain next.
Day 5 since surgery. The gas bubble is dissipating and I am seeing some fleeting glimpses of clear vision with my "new" eye. Hopeful.

You can see the gas bubble which was injected into my eye to help graft the donor cornea tissue. I have to lay flat with eyes up so it floats to the top center for several hours a day.
Working with one eye as I recover from my cornea transplant. The gas bubble in my eye is helping to adhere and graft the donor tissue. Laying flat with eyes up for several hours per day allows the bubble to be centered, providing full coverage of the donor tissue. Vision in the new eye is extremely blurry due to the bubble but I see light and am optimistic for when the gas dissipates.

Going uner the knife tomorrow morning for a cornea transplant to treat Fuchs' Dystrophy. Grateful for modern medicine.

@stella Similar experience to you. Both eyes needed a cataract after the transplant. There was already evidence of them before I started and the steroids only worsened them. I know surgeons have to be careful what they predict and a transplant is the last resort, but when it goes well, for me, the outcome for me is better than I have ever 'seen'. #keratoconus #cornea #transplant
