Cornea guttata in donor material. 1978

F Bigar, and B Schimmelpfennig, and R Hürzeler

Specular microscopy made it possible to detect cornea guttata changes within the regular reflection off the posterior surface of the cornea in donor matrial. Small, roundish lesions were present in mild forms within an otherwise intact endothelium, and in advanced cases, large warts were seen free of endothelial cell coverage.

D003315 Cornea The transparent anterior portion of the fibrous coat of the eye consisting of five layers: stratified squamous CORNEAL EPITHELIUM; BOWMAN MEMBRANE; CORNEAL STROMA; DESCEMET MEMBRANE; and mesenchymal CORNEAL ENDOTHELIUM. It serves as the first refracting medium of the eye. It is structurally continuous with the SCLERA, avascular, receiving its nourishment by permeation through spaces between the lamellae, and is innervated by the ophthalmic division of the TRIGEMINAL NERVE via the ciliary nerves and those of the surrounding conjunctiva which together form plexuses.
