The transparent tissue that covers your eye is called the conjunctiva. When blood collects under this transparent tissue, it’s known as bleeding under the conjunctiva, or subconjunctival hemorrhage.

Scientists have produced an organoid model of the human conjunctiva. These organoids mimic the function of the actual human conjunctiva, a tissue involved in tear production. Using their new model, ...

Chemosis occurs when the inner lining of the eyelids swells. This means your eye has become irritated, typically by allergies or as the result of a viral or bacterial infection. What is chemosis of ...

The eye has three structures that work together to protect it, namely, the , eyelids and lacrimal apparatus. The conjunctiva is a transparent mucous membrane that covers the front of the eye. While a ...

The Organoid group at the Hubrecht Institute produced the first organoid model of the human conjunctiva. These organoids mimic the function of the actual human conjunctiva, a tissue involved in tear ...

Inclusion cysts of the ocular adnexa are not uncommon. They often are asymptomatic and rarely present symptoms, depending on size and location. Post-surgical conjunctival cysts are seen following ...

The blinding complications of trachoma are associated with progressive conjunctival fibrosis due to excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components. We studied the processes involved ...
