[Results of Nandrolone therapy (Keratyl) in lesions and diseases of the cornea (author's transl)].

The authors report on clinical experiences with the topical application of the synthetic hormone Nandrolon (Keratyl) in diseases of the cornea caused by exogenic, neurogenic, and combined exogenic-endogenic factors. In all cases a positive regenerative effect on epithelium and stroma of the cornea seemed to exist. The present results seem to allow the following range of indications: 1. injuries of the epithelial tissue; 2. ulcera of the cornea (combined with antibiotics); 3. dystrophic diseases of the cornea; 4. certain postoperative treatment after keratoplastic surgery.
