Abstract
The topic of this paper is the appearance of palisade-shaped, soft, gray opacities of the corneal epithelium in wearers of HEMA lenses. The opacity emanates from the limbus and is located under the upper eyelid. The paper also deals with the formation of folds in Bowman's membrane. They are approximately horizontal, are usually located within the lid-fissure and occur in combination with large-scale opacity of the corneal epithelium in the upper third of the cornea. The differential diagnosis of well-known corneal changes is also discussed.Keywords
