Determination of the nature of corneal crystals by specular microscopy.

A M Brooks1, G Grant, W E Gillies.   

Abstract

The use of the specular microscope as a noninvasive in vivo method of identifying cholesterol crystals in two cases of crystalline corneal deposits is described. This illustrates the advantage of using the specular microscope under living conditions with a much higher magnification than is obtained with the slit lamp. Attention is drawn to the wider applications of this method.
