9 Introduction The studies of corneal endothelial cell apoptosis
after argon laser iridotomy Not many so far

10 Purpose To evaluate the corneal endothelial damage after argon laser iridotomy through several stain methods of corneal endothelium and suggest an animal-model for the study of corneal endothelial cell apoptosis.

11 Methods 12 Pigmented rabbits
OD : argon laser iridotomy OS : normal eye (control) One argon laser iridotomy was performed on each quadrant of iris Power : 500 mW Duration : 200 ms Interval : 300 ms Counts : 400 times

12 Methods Measuring the corneal thickness Pre-laser iridotomy(OU)
Post-laser iridotomy(OD) (immediately, 1day, 2days, 3days, 4days) by using ultrasound corneal pachymetry The BVI Pocket Pachymeter (BV International, Clermont-Ferrand, France)

13 Methods Identification of Corneal endothelial cell damage H & E stain
Alizarin red/Trypan blue stain TUNEL stain Live/Dead cell assay Endothelial cell count (in 0.04mm2 sized square)

14 Results The change of Corneal thickness

15 Results : H&E stain Post-LI control Post-LI #1day Post-LI #4day

16 Results : TUNEL stain Post-LI control

17 Results : Alizarin red/trypan blue stain
Post-LI #1day Post-LI #4day X 10 X 20 X 20 Post-LI X 40 X 20 control X 40

18 Results Corneal endothelial cell count (#4day) P-value : 0.02 Rabbit

24 Conclusion H & E stain and Alizarin red/Trypan blue stain are less sensitive methods to evaluate corneal endothelial damage after argon laser iridotomy than TUNEL stain or live/dead cell assay. Evaluation of corneal endothelial damage after argon laser iridotomy in pigmented rabbit eyes is thought to be a good animal-model for the study of corneal endothelial cell apoptosis.
