Understanding Neurotrophic Keratitis: Stain Without Pain
Drs. Marc Bloomenstein and Doug Devries discuss Neurotrophic Keratitis (NK), highlighting its progression, diagnosis, and treatment strategies.
They emphasize the importance of recognizing early signs, such as reduced blink rate and corneal sensitivity, to prevent further epithelial damage. Treatment options, including the use of amniotic membranes and cenegermin, are explored for their effectiveness in stimulating corneal nerve sensitivity and healing.
