Abstract

(Objective To) observe the effect of the transplantation of amnion joining with stem cells of limbus of cornea to treat severe eye burn.(Methods 15) cases(17 eyes) were treated be new amnion joining with suberior and inferior limbus stem cells transplantation.(Results The) visual acuity of 12 eyes(70.09%) was above 0.05.Cornea of 10 eyes didn't have neovascularization obviously.All of the 17 eyes cured with cornea scars and had stable ocular surface.Conclusions The trasplantation of amnion joining with superior and inferior limbus stem cells can decrease the symblepharon obviously on the early burn of cornea and stabilize the ocular surface.
