CXL / epithelial defects / stem cells

[epik]

Hello all,

I just “discovered” a medical event that could be very important for future KC treatments and/or corneal epithelial defects.

In the IVO Clinic of the University of Crete (Greece), Pr. Pallikaris and his team applied a pioneering treatment of stem cells for corneal epithelial healing, to a 35 years KC patient, treated with CXL 1 year ago.

You can read an abstract of the method here:
