This text provides expert instruction on the varying surgical
techniques currently employed for the regeneration of the ocular
surface. Corneal Regeneration: Therapy and Surgery begins
with a thorough discussion of current research based on data obtained in
clinical human studies, and discusses the potential clinical
implications for this promising new stage of eye surgery. Sections
devoted to the stem cell, regenerative surgery and therapy of the ocular
surface epithelium, corneal stroma, and corneal endothelium follow,
each section comprehensively covering applied anatomy, current therapy
and regenerative techniques, with a look to future directions of the
field including eventual cell therapy.
Corneal Regeneration: Therapy and Surgery
is the first book of its kind, systematically covering the developments
the medical community has achieved in corneal regeneration from all
angles. Written and edited by leading experts in the field, researchers
and ophthalmologists alike will find this to be a unique source of
information on corneal regeneration, as well as a thoughtful reflection
on potential applications of regenerative surgery in ophthalmology as a
whole.
