Persistent loss of marginal corneal arcades after chemical injury

Indian J Ophthalmol. 2020 Nov;68(11):2543-2544. doi: 10.4103/ijo.IJO_2056_20.

Abstract

Changes in the limbal microvasculature following a chemical eye injury are essential for prognosis and management. At the slit lamp, it can be difficult to assess, here using fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography we show that anterior segment angiography may be informative to assess objectively the limbal microvascular changes over the follow-up period.

Keywords: Anterior segment OCT; anterior segment angiography; limbal ischemia; marginal corneal arcades; ocular chemical burn.
