Corneal Sensitivity and Neuropathy in Patients With Ocular Graft-Versus-Host Disease
In this study, we observed that corneal sensitivity loss was associated with reduced main trunk, branch, and total nerve density in patients with ocular graft-versus-host disease. In addition, a significant correlation was observed between reduced corneal nerve density, corneal sensitivity, and severity of epitheliopathy.
