VESICULAR KERATITIS 289 torum, may cause a hazy condition of the cornea from edema due to the presence of toxin. Vesicular Keratitis is frequently associated with increased intraocular tension, it is also associated with deep inflammatory affections of the cornea and iridocyclitis. The change found on histological examination is a separa- tion of the basal cells of the epithelium from each other by fluid, which causes a desquamation of the superficial cells of the epithelium, so that the surface of the cornea becomes irregular and presents a roughened appearance Fig. 151.—Section through a staphylomatous cornea with increased tension, showing vesicles in the epithelium on its anterior surface, e, Epithelium; u, uveal pigment adherent to the back of the cornea. Case recorded in R. Lond. Ophth. Hosp. Reps., XIII, 1890, 48. The fluid, as it increases, lifts up the cells from Bowman's membrane, and droplets of it running together form vesi- cles or bullae (Fig. 151). In the early stages the basal cells occasionally show signs of vacuolation. In cases where vesicular keratitis is associated with plastic cyclitis, the fluid gives rise to a deposit of fibrin between the epithelial cells and Bowman's membrane, into.
