Matsumura T, Yamaguchi T, Higa K, et al. - In this single-center, retrospective study, researchers sought to evaluate the prognosis of consecutive patients who had superficial keratectomy, with or without amniotic membrane transplantation, for the treatment of partial limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), from 2010 to 2019. Forty patients (51 eyes) with partial LSCD were involved. Superficial keratectomy can be used to treat partial LSCD of various etiologies, with a postoperative improvement in visual acuity expected. Despite the fact that the procedure is repeatable and has a high success rate, there have been several cases of recurrence in the long-term postoperative course.
