Abstract:
Two clinical cases of hematic infiltration of the cornea after severe ocular contusions are reported. Lesion of the cornea endothelium determines infiltration of the parenchyma with hemosiderin and hypofucsin, the products of hemoglobin break down. Metabolic activity of the cornea suffers, oxygen supply becomes insufficient and produces degradation of the cornea parenchyma with loss of the visual function. The affection is interpreted as a hemosiderosis process.
