Summary

In order to develop innovative biomarkers for the diagnosis of two ocular surface pathologies, Dry Syndrome (DS) and Limbic Stem Cell Deficiency (LSCD), human cells from the ocular surface will be collected in order to test these biomarkers ex vivo.

Detailed description

To collect them, cytological fingerprints of the ocular surface are made using filter paper applied to the surface using a commercially available EC (European Conformity)-marked medical device, called EYEPRIM.
