Preferred Label : corneal neovascularization;
MeSH definition : New blood vessels originating from the corneal veins and extending from the limbus
into the adjacent CORNEAL STROMA. Neovascularization in the superficial and/or deep
corneal stroma is a sequel to numerous inflammatory diseases of the ocular anterior
segment, such as TRACHOMA, viral interstitial KERATITIS, microbial KERATOCONJUNCTIVITIS,
and the immune response elicited by CORNEAL TRANSPLANTATION.; New blood vessels originating from the corneal blood vessels and extending from the
limbus into the adjacent CORNEAL STROMA. Neovascularization in the superficial and/or
deep corneal stroma is a sequel to numerous inflammatory diseases of the ocular anterior
segment, such as TRACHOMA, viral interstitial KERATITIS, microbial KERATOCONJUNCTIVITIS,
and the immune response elicited by CORNEAL TRANSPLANTATION.;
