- Figure 1.
Enface views of upper bulbar conjunctiva with embedded microcysts before surgery, at the surface (A), 10 μm (B), 15 μm (C) and 20 μm of depth (D).
- Figure 2.
Enface views of upper bulbar conjunctiva eight weeks after trabeculectomy at the surface (A), 10 μm (B), 15 μm (C), and 20 μm (D), showing a greater number of microcysts, with an increased area at the different focal plans.
- Figure 3.
Multiple z scans before (A, B) and after trabeculectomy (C, D) depicts that conjunctival epithelium and microcysts are independent and clearly separated structures with similar eight.
- Figure 4.
3-D analysis at the intermediate layer of conjunctiva before surgery(A), showing small oval shaped microcysts in Y (B, red line) and X scans (C, green line). The blue line identifies the scan plane with respect to the surface (top image).
- Figure 5.
3-D analysis at the intermediate layer of conjunctiva after surgery (A), showing oval shaped microcysts in Y (B, red line) and X scans (C, green line) with greater density and larger area compared to the pre-surgical examination. The blue line identifies the scan plane with respect to the surface (top image).
- Figure 6.
Enface and oblique view of surface analysis of microcysts before (A, C) and after trabeculectomy (B, D) confirm the presence of a monolayer of CEM.
