“…Confocal microscopy is a rapid, noninvasive, high-resolution technique used to investigate in vivo the morphologic features of normal and patho- logic human corneas. Most studies have been involved in evaluating corneal structures after local or systemic diseases, such as diabetes, dry eye, herpetic and acanthamoeba keratitis, keratoconus, refractive surgery procedures, [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] and recently, atopic keraconjunctivitis, 30 superior limbic keraconjunctivitis, 31 and allergic reactions. 32 Corneal involvement in VKC is considered a superficial epitheliopathy that can worsen in the presence of superficial sterile ulcers and aspecific hypersensitivity resulting from changes in corneal sensitivity and epithelial alterations.…”
