Influence of FLEx and SMILE on corneal nerve density and ocular surface
This was a prospective study designed to compare the influence of femtosecond lenticule extraction (FLEx) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) on the corneal nerve density and ocular surface for myopic correction. Thirty patients underwent bilateral lenticule extraction. One eye...Ocular surface special: Ocular manifestations of Stevens-Johnson syndrome

SJS is characterised by an acute, immune-mediated attack on the skin and mucous membranes, producing a rapidly progressive erythematous eruption with blistering...
Ocular surface and meibomian gland changes in cicatricial conjunctival disease
The authors evaluate long-term structural and functional meibomian gland and lid margin changes in a retrospective study of 64 patients (64 eyes) with chronic cicatricial conjunctival diseases (CCDs), including ocular cicatricial pemphigoid (OCP; n=22), Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS-TEN; n=24),...
Incidental ocular surface squamous neoplasia in pterygia: a systematic review and meta-analysis
This is a systematic review of 12 papers, which included 8688 participants and identified 202 cases of incidental ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) (pooled prevalence=1.32%, 95% confidence interval (CI), I2=95.3%). Meta-regression showed that lower OSSN prevalence was associated with greater...
