Conjunctival impression cytology evaluation of patients with dry eye disease using scleral contact lenses

Highlights • Conjunctival impression cytology changes after wearing scleral lenses were assessed. • Morphological results and HLA-DR cells were quantified in each impression cytology. • HE-PAS impression cytology score did not differ significantly after wearing the lens. • HLA-DR antigen increased i...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Conjunctival impression cytology changes after wearing scleral lenses were assessed. • Morphological results and HLA-DR cells were quantified in each impression cytology. • HE-PAS impression cytology score did not differ significantly after wearing the lens. • HLA-DR antigen increased in patients with Sjogren's syndrome after wearing the lens.
