Laser Scanning In Vivo Confocal Microscopy of Clear Grafts after Penetrating Keratoplasty

Figure 1

Laser scanning in vivo confocal microscopy images of (a) the subepithelial nerves in the patient after penetrating keratoplasty (regenerated in a random and disordered pattern) and (b) the subepithelial nerves of the healthy cornea (parallel neural contorts and regular morphology). (a) Scanning-depth: 45 μm; age: 43 years. (b) Scanning-depth: 50 μm; age: 29 years.
