Case Report

A 64-year-old woman with pain on awakening in both eyes for many years presented because of eye floaters. Both corneae showed epithelial derangement compatible with recurrent erosion syndrome and fingerprint lines. Goldman’s applanation tonometry was performed.

The photographs of the right cornea were taken immediately after the tonometry and 4 h later.

Fig. 2.22(a, b) Survey of a lesion (a) immediately after tonometry and (b) 4 h later (fluorescein and blue filter). Left column: the area in frame in (a); right column: the area in frame in (b), captured (c, d) in focal illumination, (e, f) in retroillumination and (g, h) after the application of fluorescein. A part of the lesion (arrows) has enlarged. In (e, f) some rounded bodies (arrowheads) are visible that have remained in place (the markers are placed in corresponding locations)
