Summary

Progenitor limbo sclerocorneal cells have properties of proliferation and differentiation to corneal and conjunctival epithelium. This cells can be isolated and ex vivo expanded using cell culture technics that could permit the biological replacement of damaged ocular surface.

Conditions

• Unilateral Limbic Insufficiency

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	biological replacement corneal surface	the expanded tissue will be applied to patient to replace the damaged ocular surface
