Figure 1. Mouse model of limbal stem cell deficiency created using limbus to limbus scraping. Fluorescein staining pattern of a normal cornea showing minimal staining due to dryness (A). Immediately after total corneal epithelial debridement there was a total epithelial defect (B). Three weeks after total removal of the corneal epithelium, fluorescein staining revealed diffuse punctate epithelial staining (C). Two months after total debridement, the cornea has developed progressive superficial neovascularization (D).
