Mucus Fishing Syndrome: a case with sterile corneal ulcer

Mucus Fishing Syndrome: a case with sterile corneal ulcer

Mucus fishing syndrome is a rare condition that is characterized by increased mucus secretion and mechanical removal of mucus leading to a continuous mechanical trauma to the ocular surface. The mechanical removal of mucus results in ocular surface damage which leads to further increase of mucus pro...
