    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Corneal epithelial trauma is a common clinical occurrence.
    • Injuries vary in severity, from punctate keratitis to large epithelial defects.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the mechanisms of corneal epithelial regeneration.
    • To outline the clinical management of corneal epithelial injuries.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review on corneal wound healing.
    • Synthesis of current clinical practices for managing epithelial defects.

    Main Results:

    • Epithelial regeneration involves cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation.
    • Management strategies depend on defect size and etiology.

    Conclusions:

    • Understanding regeneration mechanisms informs clinical practice.
    • Prompt and appropriate management is crucial for optimal visual outcomes.
