Abstract:

The ocular surface is a complex structure that maintains the integrity of the cornea through a homeostatic mechanism. When the ocular surface changes due to disease, its homeostasis is lost, leading to discomfort, corneal opacity, and visual impairment. The traditional treatment methods for ocular surface diseases mainly include eye drops or transplantation surgery, while ocular surface reconstruction therapy repairs damaged ocular surfaces by stimulating the proliferation of ocular surface cells, maintaining ocular surface homeostasis, and restoring ocular surface function. It has been demonstrated that promoting corneal tissue regeneration and improving tear film stability to restore damaged ocular surfaces can improve the quality of life of patients with ocular surface, which has long-term advantages over traditional methods in treating ocular surface diseases. The new progress in ocular surface reconstruction methods based on common ocular surface diseases such as limbal stem cell deficiency, neurotrophic keratopathy, dry eye disease, and pterygium were reviewed in this paper.

Key words: Ocular surface, Ocular surface reconstruction, Limbal stem cell deficiency, Neurotrophic keratopathy, Dry eye disease, Pterygium
