Managing Patients With Neurotrophic Keratitis: Improve outcomes through recognition, applying updated staging, evidence-based treatment, and team-based follow-up

In addition to an overview of symptomatic care and emerging treatments, the safety, efficacy, storage, and administration of cenegermin are explained in detail. Clinical and real-world questions are discussed, related to patient education, provided by the interprofessional, multidisciplinary team.
