Because that the phase matching of degenerate operation for such a PPLN with 31 [micro]m grating period is realized at the temperature of 94[degrees]C, we used an oven to heat the MgO:PPLN, which can also limit the amount of photorefractive damage caused by the strong 1 [micro]m pump.

Animal experimental studies revealed that topical application of NGF accelerated restoration of corneal sensitivity and promoted cornea epithelial proliferation and nerve regeneration after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) or photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) [85-87].

Las causas de las queratitis infecciosas en nuestra poblacion fueron: en 31 casos (31.6%) asociados a traumatismos; 15 pacientes (15.3%) tuvieron antecedente de uso de esteroides topicos; 11 casos (11.22%) fueron asociados a lagoftalmos; 4 casos se asociaron al antecedente de uso de lentes de contacto; 2 fueron secundarios a cirugia de PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) y en 35 casos se desconocio el mecanismo o etiologia.
