The latter is due to rucking of Descemet's membrane by the swollen tissue, it is often inaccurately spoken of as striated keratitis, it is not an inflammatory condition and should be termed striated. Fig, 198.—Shows a new formation of hyaline membrane Hned by endothelia cells on the posterior surface of the scar in the cornea of an incision made years previously for iridectomy. The divided ends of Descemet's membrane are separated by cicatricial tissue, that on the left side turning forward and that on the right backward. Case recorded in R. Lond. Ophth. Hosp. Reps., XIV, 1896, 310. Opacity. As the endothelium at the back of these wounds usually soon reforms, and then checks any further filtration of aqueous into them, the opacity to which it gives rise is generally of only temporary duration. Wounds at the sclero-corneal margin in which a piece of Descemet's membrane is cut out, as in sclerectomy and sclero-corneal trephining, or where the divided edges of that membrane become very widely retracted, as in some forms of sclerotomy, never get their posterior surfaces recovered by endothelial cells and persist, therefore, as permanently filtering cicatrices. If the anterior margins of a corneal wound are widely separated the epithelium at its borders may spread round the lips of the wound, but not become of sufficient thickness to bridge across the gap, so that a groove is for a time left on the surface. Should the lips of a corneal wound fail to become agglu- tinated by the temporary coagulum, or having become.
