Visions of Eye Commensals: The Known and the Unknown About How the Microbiome Affects Eye Disease

5 Oct 2018

Abstract excerpt

Until recently, the ocular surface is thought by many to be sterile and devoid of living microbes. It is now becoming clear that this may not be the case. Recent and sophisticated PCR analyses have shown that microbial DNA-based "signatures" are present within various ethnic, geographic, and contact lens wearing communities. Furthermore, using a mouse model of ocular surface disease, we have shown that the...
