[Development of the retrocorneal membrane following trauma]. 1983

P M Sannwald, and H H Knöbel

The authors report on 48 eyes drawn from the histological material of Hamburg University Eye Clinic, which were enucleated because of painful secondary narrow-angle glaucoma, phthisis bulbi resulting from accidents, or iatrogenic trauma, and which were found to have a retrocorneal membrane. The clinical and histopathological pictures are presented and the pathogenesis is discussed.

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.
