  • 摘要:Purpose

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combined treatment of anterior stromal puncture with the concurrent use of 5% NaCl eye drops for 6 months for recurrent corneal erosion syndrome.

    Methods

    A retrospective chart review was conducted for 21 patients (21 eyes) who underwent the combined treatment of anterior stromal puncture with 5% NaCl eye drops qid for 6 months to treat recurrent corneal erosion syndromes. The patients' age, gender, history of corneal trauma, history of ocular surgery, recurrence rate, need for additional treatments after recurrence and complication were analyzed.

    Results

    The mean age was 42.05 ± 13.83 years (19-68 years) with no significant difference in gender, and the mean follow up period was 8.48 ± 2.76 months (6-15 months). Among the 21 eyes 14 eyes (66.7%) had a previous history of corneal trauma, 2 eyes (9.52%) had previous refractive surgery, 1 eye (4.8%) had corneal dystrophy, 2 eyes (9.5%) had diabetic mellitus and 5 eyes (28.81%) had an unknown origin. Furthermore, 3 eyes (14.3%) developed recurrences and 2 eyes were resolved with conservative treatment while 1 eye needed additional anterior stroma puncture. There was no recurrence after retreatment with anterior stroma puncture. No significant complications such as infection or inflammation developed with the exception of corneal opacity in which one patient developed glare due to corneal opacity.

    Conclusions

    The combined treatment of anterior stromal puncture with 5% NaCl eye drops for a prolonged time might be effective at preventing the recurrence of refractory recurrent corneal erosion syndrome with conservative treatments.
