Decreased Geometric Complexity of Corneal Nerve Fibers Distribution in Sjogren’s syndrome Patients

Author(s):

Giorgio Bianciardi, Maria Eugenia Latronico and Traversi C

Objective: Dry eye affects many individuals worldwide and a significant portion of patient with dry eye present the Sjogren’s syndrome (SS), a progressive, autoimmune condition. In order to choose and follow the best therapy it’s necessary to have noninvasive quantitative methods able to characterize the status of the corneal nerve fibers of the patients.

Methods: Local fractal dimension by box-counting (evaluation of geometric complexity) of the nerve corneal fibers distribution observed by confocal microscopy was performed in patients with primary SS (n=36: 6 males, 30 fe... view more»
