[Specular microscopy of the corneal endothelium (author's transl)].
Specular microscopy enables the examination of the endothelium of the isolated and perfused cornea. It is of great help in evaluating donor material in an Eye Bank. The in vivo observation and microphotography of the corneal endothelium makes it possible to detect early degenerative, traumatic surgical and other pathological changes of the monolayer.
