Dermatography as a modern treatment for coloring leucoma corneae

Since antiquity many attempts were made and hence many methods were devised to minimize the disfiguration and stigmatization caused by leucoma corneae. Dermatography, a refined, modified tattooing technique, was used successfully in three cases of leucoma corneae. The materials and method are safe and simple. Over a 3-year follow-up period, no negative reactions were found. The cosmetic results were very satisfactory.
