Corneal confocal microscopy is a novel clinical technique for the study of corneal cellular
structure. It provides images which are comparable to in-vitro histochemical techniques …

Confocal microscopy allows non-invasive in vivo imaging of the ocular surface. Its unique
physical properties enable microscopic examination of all layers of the cornea and have …

PURPOSE: To describe the principles, capabilities, and applications of confocal microscopy
in vivo in ophthalmology. DESIGN: Perspective, literature review, and commentary …

In vivo, scanning-slit, confocal microscopy offers improved resolution and has resulted in
new discoveries of corneal pathology at the cellular level. The ability to provide high …

Background: The purpose of this article is to introduce the practicing ophthalmologist to the
optical principles and images produced by a tandem scanning confocal microscope …

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate microstructural differences between clinically
similar, but aetiologically different, cases of corneal oedema in four subjects. In vivo confocal …

Corneal confocal microscopy is a growing technique for the study of the cornea at the
cellular level, providing images comparable to ex vivo histochemical methods. In vivo …

Aims: To describe the optics of in vivo confocal microscopy, its advantages over previous
methods, and to summarise the literature that arose from its use for the observation of the …

Confocal microscopy enables microstructural analysis of the in vivo cornea, allowing fresh
insight into corneal microstructure in health, and in inherited and acquired corneal disease …

In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) is becoming an indispensable tool for studying corneal
physiology and disease. Enabling the dissection of corneal architecture at a cellular level …
