Management of alkali and acid burns is started at the scene of the accident by copious irrigation. Treatment is directed at improving epithelial integrity and stromal stability, reduction of undue inflammation, and prevention or timely management of complications. To ascertain the best possible outcome, numerous biological medications and surgical interventions have been merged into conventional therapeutic regimens. These include autologous and umbilical cord serum preparations, platelet-rich plasma, amniotic membrane transplantation, limbal stem-cell transplantation, and anti-angiogenic agents.Keywords: ocular chemical burn, amniotic membrane transplantation, autologous serum, limbal stem cell transplantationSoleimani MNaderan MDove Medical Pressarticleocular chemical burnamniotic membrane transplantationautologous serumlimbal stem cell transplantationOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2687-2699 (2020)
