Compared to published results of surgical removal alone, limbal transplants can result in more corneal clarity and less cornea affected by symblepharon. Further investigation is warranted to refine the procedure as well as determine whether allogenic transplantation is effective in cases of bilateral symblepharon.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vop.70051","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]],"date-time":"2025-07-29T05:11:18Z","timestamp":1753765878000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Modified Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplant for the Treatment of Symblepharon in Cats: A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7272-4508","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"William","family":"Irving","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily","family":"Perry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kelly","family":"Caruso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2306-8054","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Benjamin","family":"Reynolds","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"McCarthy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cameron","family":"Whittaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matthew","family":"Annear","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eye Clinic for Animals  Sydney New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612X221150160"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","volume-title":"Veterinary Ophthalmology","author":"Gelatt K.
