Research progress on the treatment of exposure keratitis
Journal Title: Guoji Yanke Zazhi - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 11
Abstract
Exposure keratitis refers to corneal inflammation caused by corneal dryness, epithelial exfoliation and secondary infection when the cornea loses the protection of the eyelid and is exposed to air. It is a potentially vision-threatening disease and is not uncommon in clinical work, so the treatment and prevention of exposure keratitis remain important. This article reviews the treatment and research progress of exposure keratitis.
