LSCM of the cornea. Nerve fibers of the corneal subbasal nerve plexus in control cornea (a and b). Nerve fibers of the corneal subbasal nerve plexus in congenital glaucoma (c and d). Mean subbasal nerve density was significantly decreased in congenital glaucoma (2108±692 μm) compared with control cornea (2642±484 μm) (P=0.003, Student's t-test). The total number of nerve fibers in congenital glaucoma (12.3±4.2) was also significantly reduced compared with control cornea (15.4±3.1) (P=0.02, Student's t-test). Scale bar represents 100 μm.
