Staging for severity of cicatricial conjunctivitis | |
Foster Staging[7] | |
I | Subepithelial fibrosis, positive rose-bengal staining in conjunctiva, conjunctival “shrinkage” from abnormal connective tissue due to small white striae that form around the superficial vessels in substantia propria |
II | Marked foreshortening of inferior conjunctiva described by (1) 0%-25%; (2) 25%-50%; (3) 50%-75%; and (4) 75%-100% |
III | Corneal neovascularization, trichiasis, dystichiasis, keratopathy, subepithelial bands of connective tissue resulting in symblepharon (conjunctival adhesions) formation that is described by (1) 0%-25%; (2) 25%-50%; (3) 50%-75%; and (4) 75%-100% |
IV | Severe sicca syndrome, keratinization, ankyloblepharon |
Mondino Staging[134] | |
I | 0%-25% loss of inferior conjunctival fornix depth |
II | 25%-50% loss of inferior conjunctival fornix depth |
III | 50%-75% loss of inferior conjunctival fornix depth |
IV | 75%-100% loss of inferior conjunctival fornix depth |
