Autologous limbal epithelial cell transplantation improved the corneal surface in eyes with LSCD. Photocoagulation of neovessel ingrowth was effective over the 1-year follow-up. Results may facilitate the application of this technique in patients.

Immediate and long-term results of ECV of AF, an effective and safe procedure, are unaffected by age,at least after adjusting for several covariates.

Our method was able to produce rabbit-derived PRP with suitable properties for soft tissue adhesion. These results could be useful for researchers of the growing fields of tissue repair and experimental transplantation.
