AIM To describe the prognosis and complications of corneoscleral transplantation in the management of end stage eye disease. METHODS A case series is presented of 23 patients who have undergone corneoscleral transplantation (> or = 11 mm).

the resistant* of patesa against lateral displacement (le. the stability), was studied tinder a range of conditions in vitro, at a range of knee flexion angles. muscle forces were applied in physiological directions along the separate quadriceps muscles. normal muscle actions with constant tension showed constant patellar stability up to sixty degrees knee flexion, and then a significant increa...

PURPOSE Inappropriate contact lens (CL) use and care often lead to corneal neovascularization (corneal NV). We used mouse eyes which wore CL as the animal model to assess the reason for corneal NV with CL wear. The similar and overlapping activity of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the potent angiogenic hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) called for a study of the temporal relati...
