角膜屈光手术是目前屈光手术的主流术式,随着全飞秒、全激光手术方式的发展,手术变得更加安全精准,不仅角膜创伤小,术后恢复时间也进一步缩短。角膜具有屈光特性和典型的生物软组织力学特性,角膜力学特性不仅参与维持角膜形态,影响角膜手术尤其屈光手术的效果及预后,而且还与部分角膜疾病的发生和发展密切相关。近年来生物力学研究发展迅速,其在眼部疾病的诊疗中发挥着越来越重要的作用。角膜生物力学的变化与术前角膜的形态、不同手术方式的选择、术后角膜厚度的改变等多种因素相关,但手术导致的角膜自身形态改变是不可逆的,若术后角膜生物力学的变化较大,可能会引起医源性角膜扩张、继发性圆锥角膜等并发症的发生。为了规避术后角膜扩张风险和指导个性化的术式选择,了解角膜生物力学特性的影响至关重要。文章对角膜的基础结构、角膜生物力学特性、生物力学测量方法和不同术式及不同角膜瓣厚度术后生物力学变化的研究进展进行综述,为近视患者的个性化精准治疗提供理论指导。
Corneal refractive surgery is currently main stream of refractive surgery. With the development of femtosecond and laser surgery, the surgery has become safer and more accurate, resulting in less corneal trauma and a shorter postoperative recovery time. In recent years, biomechanics research has rapidly progressed, and its clinical application has gradually increased. The cornea not only possesses refractive properties but also exhibits typical biological soft tissue mechanical properties. Corneal mechanical properties not only play a role in maintaining corneal morphology but also influence the outcome and prognosis of corneal surgery, especially refractive surgery, and are closely related to the occurrence and development of some corneal diseases. Corneal refractive surgery involves cutting the cornea according to the patient's diopter, which disrupts the integrity of the cornea and inevitably affects its biomechanical stability. Changes in corneal biomechanics are associated with various factors, such as preoperative corneal morphology, the selection of different surgical methods, and postoperative changes in corneal thickness. However, the self-morphology changes caused by surgery are irreversible. If the postoperative changes in corneal biomechanics are significant, it may lead to complications such as postoperative corneal dilation and secondary keratoconus. To avoid postoperative iatrogenic corneal dilation and guide personalized surgical choice, it is crucial to understand the limits of influence of corneal biomechanical properties. This article reviews the research progress regarding corneal biomechanical properties and changes associated with corneal refractive surgery.
目的:旨在研究按移植指征分类以及移植前角膜血管形成对手术后5年内排斥反应和移植物失败率的相对风险。方法:分析1999—2017年间,英国移植登记处记录的所有因圆锥角膜(keratoconus,KC)、人工晶状体大泡性角膜病(pseudophakic bullous keratopathy,PBK)或既往感染(病毒/细菌/真菌/原生动物)而首次进行角膜移植的成年人。统计移植前受体角膜血管化象限的数量、血管化类型、移植后排斥反应的间隔时间(如果有的话)以及移植后5年的结果。通过多变量风险调整Cox回归法进行排斥反应和移植失败的危险因素建模。结果:KC、PBK和感染患者的角膜血管形成率分别为10%、25%和67%。只有当存在浅表和(或)深部血管形成时(HR分别为1.3和1.4,P=0.004),存在两个以上象限的血管形成时,PBK患者移植排斥反应的风险才会增加(HR=1.5,P=0.0004)。因既往感染而接受移植的个体在四个象限的血管形成中发生排斥反应的风险增加(HR=1.6,P=0.003)。在任何一组中,经过风险调整后,与血管形成有关的移植失败率并未上升。对于含有血管的受体角膜,相对于穿透性KC和PBK移植,没有充分的证据显示板层移植在降低排斥反应或失败风险方面存在优势。结论:血管化是5年内角膜移植排斥反应的危险因素。移植的适应证对这种风险的具有临床意义。
Objective: To investigate the relative risk of pretransplant corneal vascularisation on rate of rejection and graft failure within 5 years of surgery when categorised by indication for transplantation. Methods: We analysed all adults recorded in the UK transplant registry who had a first cornea transplant for keratoconus (KC), pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK) or previous infection (viral/bacterial/fungal/protozoan) between 1999 and 2017. We analysed the number of quadrants of the recipient cornea vascularised before transplant and type of vascularisation, the interval posttransplant to rejection, if any, and the outcome at 5 years post-transplant. Risk factors for rejection and transplant failure were modelled by multivariable risk-adjusted Cox regression. Results: Corneal vascularisation was recorded in 10%, 25% and 67% of patients with KC, PBK and infection, respectively. Individuals with PBK had an increased hazard of transplant rejection only when there were more than two quadrants of vascularisation (HR 1.5, p=0.004) when either superficial and/or deep vascularisation was present (HR 1.3 and 1.4, respectively, p=0.004). Individuals who had a transplant for previous infection had an increased hazard of rejection with four quadrants of vascularisation (HR 1.6, p=0.003). There was no risk-adjusted increase in transplant failure associated with vascularisation in any group. There was weak evidence of reduction in risk of rejection and/or failure associated with lamellar compared with penetrating transplantation in KC and PBK in vascularised recipient corneas. Conclusion: Vascularisation is a risk factor for corneal allograft rejection within 5 years. The indication for transplantation has a clinically significant effect on the magnitude of this risk.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) on corneal endothelial cells after silicone oil tamponade. Methods: Patients (n=131) received vitrectomy with silicone oil injection in Ophthalmology Center in Second People’s Hospital of Foshan City from January 1st to September 30th 2019 were divided into the high IOP group (n=80) and normal IOP group (n=51). IOP was >21 mmHg at any time in the high IOP group and was ≤21mmHg in the normal IOP group after surgery. The values of corneal endothelial cells before filling with silicone oil and before removing silicone oil were compared.Results: The average IOP was 20.79 mmHg in the high IOP group, and 14.70 mmHg in the normal IOP group (P<0.001). The number of endothelial cells (ECD) was reduced, but the average endothelial cell area was increased (P<0.05) in both groups. The coefficient of variation of endothelial cell size in high IOP group was increased (P<0.05). ECD loss rate was 6.3% in the high IOP group and 3.5% in normal IOP group. Increased IOP within 1–6 weeks after surgery (7.1%) and IOP ≥40 mmHg (7.3%) had the greatest impact on ECD. ECD loss was correlated with IOP (r=0.176, P=0.044). Conclusion: High intraocular pressure after silicone oil filling is an important risk factor for the loss of corneal endothelial cells.Keywords intraocular pressure; corneal endothelium; silicone oil; vitrect

随着白内障手术由复明性向屈光性转变,对角膜的散光矫正显得越来越重要。而角膜散光不仅仅应该关注角膜前表面的散光数据,更应该考虑角膜后表面的散光,否则对散光人工晶状体植入矫正角膜散光可能出现不同程度的术后屈光误差。角膜后表面散光均值约为0.37 D,且多数情况下会产生逆规散光的效果,因此在进行散光型人工晶状体计算时应考虑到这一特点,进一步防止术后欠矫或过矫的发生。
With the cataract surgery evolving from visual restoration surgery to refractive surgery, surgical correction of corneal astigmatism becomes more and more important. For Toric intraocular lens implantation, the surgeon should not only pay attention to the values in surface of anterior corneal astigmatism but also that in posterior corneal astigmatism. Otherwise,unwanted postoperative refractive errors may occur. The mean value of posterior corneal astigmatism was around 0.37 D.In most cases, the posterior corneal astigmatism produces against-the-rule effect. Therefore, the above-mentioned feature of posterior corneal astigmatism should be noticed to prevent the under-correction or over-correction effect of toric lens.

Objective: Due to the limitations of small imaging field of view of in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) or the incapability of cellular imaging of traditional optical coherence tomography (OCT) in human corneal imaging, this study was designed to develop a novel high-resolution in vivo human corneal imaging system based on full-field OCT (FFOCT). Methods: The FFOCT system utilized a high numerical aperture air immersion microscope objective and a high-speed area array CMOS camera with two-phase modulation image processing algorithm to achieve high-speed high-resolution non-contact imaging of human cornea. To verify its feasibility, in vivo cornea imaging at different depth was performed on a healthy human subject. Results: The FFOCT system achieved a theoretical lateral imaging resolution of 1.7 μm, an imaging field of view of 1.26 mm×1.26 mm, and an imaging rate of 275 Hz/s. High-resolution FFOCT images of the main structural layers of cornea were achieved by imaging a healthy human cornea in vivo with this system in a non-contact way. Conclusion: The FFOCT human corneal imaging system combines the advantages of the non-contractness and the large imaging field of view of traditional OCT with the cellular lateral resolution of IVCM, potentially providing a new imaging system for the research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of corneal diseases.
