[Maplike dystrophy of the cornea (author's transl)]. 1980

I Egerer

A report on 11 cases of maplike dystrophy of the cornea; it is characterized by the presence of fine whitish intraepithelial lines, which may easily be overlooked during biomicroscopic examination: they are most easily descernable in bright oblique illumination. Similarities with Cogan's, fingerprint, and bleblike dystrophy (Bron) are discussed, and the potential weakness of the corneal epithelium found in these patients is pointed out.
