Corneal Regeneration

This text provides expert instruction on the varying surgical techniques currently employed for
the regeneration of the ocular surface. Corneal Regeneration: Therapy and Surgery begins with
a thorough discussion of current research based on data obtained in clinical human studies,
and discusses the potential clinical implications for this promising new stage of eye surgery.
Sections devoted to the stem cell, regenerative surgery and therapy of the ocular surface
epithelium, corneal stroma, and corneal endothelium follow, each section comprehensively
covering applied anatomy, current therapy and regenerative techniques, with a look to future
directions of the field including eventual cell therapy. Corneal Regeneration: Therapy and
Surgery is the first book of its kind, systematically covering the developments the medical
community has achieved in corneal regeneration from all angles. Written and edited by leading
experts in the field, researchers and ophthalmologists alike will find this to be a unique source
of information on corneal regeneration, as well as a thoughtful reflection on potential
applications of regenerative surgery in ophthalmology as a whole.
