Abstract excerpt

The stem cells involved in renewal of the corneal epithelium are located in the basal region of the limbus, a narrow transition zone surrounding the cornea. In many ocular surface disorders loss of these stem cells results in partial or complete vision loss. Conventional corneal transplant in these patients is associated with dismal results. Stem cell transplantation offers new hope to such patients. The...
