Wide-field contact specular microscopy analysis of corneal endothelium post trabeculectomy.

CEC density following trabeculectomy decreased near the bleb, but not at the cornea center, suggesting that the involvement of the filtration bleb in CEC density loss should be further examined to elucidate the pathology of…

Effect of the Rho-Associated Kinase Inhibitor Eye Drop (Ripasudil) on Corneal Endothelial Wound Healing.

Ripasudil promoted corneal endothelial wound healing, supporting its development as eye drops for treating acute corneal endothelial damage due to eye surgeries, especially cataract surgery.

Rho-Associated Kinase Inhibitor Eye Drop (Ripasudil) Transiently Alters the Morphology of Corneal Endothelial Cells.

Ripasudil induces transient guttae-like findings in humans, most likely due to protrusion formation along intracellular borders caused by the reduction in actomyosin contractility of the corneal endothelial cells.
