Steroids for Corneal Ulcers Trial (SCUT) NEI Study The pilot study showed better visual acuity and smaller infiltrate/scar size but longer re-epithelialization time with steroids treatment. All the adverse outcomes took place in the placebo group. However, none of the results were statistically significant due to small sample size. Two Red Eyes Steroids for Corneal Ulcers Trial (SCUT) The study is a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled trial to determine whether adding topical steroids to antibiotic treatment improves the outcomes of bacterial corneal ulcers. Bacterial corneal ulcers presenting to the Aravind Eye Hospital, the UCSF Proctor Foundation, and the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center will be randomized to receive antibiotic (moxifloxacin) plus steroid (prednisolone phosphate) or antibiotic plus placebo. They will be followed closely until re-epithelialization and then rechecked three weeks and three months later.

She had a history of similar attacks & diagnosed as RCE. Epithelial debridement, lubricants and BCL failed to relieve pain and halt recurrence. Treatment Strategy Epithelial debridement to remove loose epithelium (Fig. A, B) followed by placement of PROKERA SLIM On the 2nd day, the patient had no pain. Complete healing occurred within 3 days, resulting in clear cornea and 20/20 vision. A smooth surface remained stable with no recurrence for 13 months follow-up (Fig. C, D) PROKERA should be considered after lubricants have failed 14
