Autologous Serum Eye Drops Combined With Silicone Hydrogen Lenses for the Treatment of Postinfectious Corneal Persistent Epithelial Defects

“…Several different methods have been employed to treat corneal PED, but no clear standard therapeutic approach has been established. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]11,[14][15][16] Autologous serum has yielded favorable results in a variety of corneal diseases such as dry eye, recurrent corneal erosions, and PED according to multiple studies. [5][6][7][8][9] Evidence suggests that several essential ocular surface nutrients found in serum, such as lipids, vitamins, cytokines, fibronectin, proteins, and growth factors, may assist in the healing of epithelial defects.…”

“…1,2 If untreated, corneal melting may occur, and the lesion can rapidly deteriorate into corneal perforation, which is a very dangerous situation. 2 Treating postinfectious corneal PEDs is challenging for ophthalmologists and surgical intervention, for example, amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) 1,2 and temporary or permanent tarsorrhaphy 3,4 are occasionally indicated to manage recalcitrant cases that are unresponsive to medical therapy. In recent years, autologous serum eye drops (ASEs) have gained popularity and widespread acceptance as an adjuvant therapy for various corneal disorders, including PEDs recalcitrant to standard medical therapies.…”

Eyelid Malpositions and Ocular Surface Disease: Clinical Correlations and Management Strategies

“…Botulinum toxin has both protective and rehabilitative applications. Injection into the levator palpebrae can induce protective ptosis for three to four months, though transient diplopia may occur with superior rectus spread [ 67 , 68 ]. In synkinesis—such as oral–ocular or paradoxical frontalis activation—targeted pretarsal orbicularis injections reduce involuntary closure, and contralateral chemodenervation improves facial symmetry.…”
