The ocular surface is a unique mucosal surface that is continuously exposed to the external environment. Studies have described the microbiota in normal ocular surfaces and that in complex diseases was not well defined. In this project, we are going to obtain conjunctival samples from moderate to severe diseases of the ocular surface with different underlying pathologies and to compare their characteristics.
