Clinical Trial Summary

Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome Is a common disorder in Egypt. IT is one of the common causes of coexisting cataract and glaucoma. It may be associated with a less than normal endothelial count.


Description:

The corneal Endothelium is essential for the maintenance of normal corneal hydration, thickness, and transparency.

In patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome , quantitative and qualitative morphological changes of the corneal endothelium have been demonstrated in specular and electron microscopic studies.

Specular microscopy is a non-invasive technique to access the structure and function of the corneal endothelium.

Our research question is to study Endothelial cell count in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome & compare it to age matched group.
