Multilayered amniotic membrane transplantation may be effective for the treatment of deep ulceration of the cornea and sclera. In some eyes with total corneal limbal dysfunction or autoimmune disorders, amniotic membrane transplantation alone is not effective.
RTVue-100 FD-OCT may be a useful alternative for measuring the CCT; however, it significantly underestimates the CCT compared with the USP and the Pentacam with slight differences. Although highly correlated, the measurements are not directly interchangeable in clinical practice.

Our findings indicated that IVCM measurements of the whorl-like patterns may accurately define the extent of corneal nerve damage in order to monitor diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
