Persistent Epithelial Disease (PED) Disease Understanding 

The review of the literature is not able to suggest the actual incidence of PED. However, the estimated incidence based on assumptions regarding the causes of PED helped to understand possible the number of cases of PED. Overall, the estimated number of PEDs per year in the United States is roughly 73,434 −99,465 cases (Wirostko et al., 2015). The total number of incidence of PEDs is less than 200,000 in the US and is therefore considered an orphan disease in this region (Vaidyanathan et al., 2019). 

 

Persistent Epithelial Disease, also known as persistent corneal epithelial defects (PEDs or PCEDs), results from the failure of rapid re-epithelialization and closure within 10–14 days after a corneal injury, even with standard supportive treatment. PED is defined as “defects persisting for more than 2 weeks without improvement despite conventional treatment, such as non-preservative artificial tears or extended wear soft contact lenses” (Tsubota). PEDs commonly extend into the stromal layer, causing stromal melting, secondary ulceration, and stromal scarring. Also, an insult to the cornea resulting in an acute epithelial defect is a lesion that usually heals over the 7–14 days time frame. In contrast, a persistent epithelial defect is unable to close within this normal interval.

 

The normal corneal wound healing process can be disrupted from defective epithelial adhesion, limbal stem cell deficiency, surface trauma, medications, infections, and several other etiologies. Such defects are especially common in individuals with metaherpes, neurotrophic keratopathy, or diabetic keratopathy. 

 

Some of the symptoms of PEDs are loss of corneal epithelial cells, delayed epithelialization post-injury, nonhealing epithelial defect and others which can be commonly due to Epithelial/limbal, inflammatory disease, Neurotrophic, mechanical causes, and others. Evaluating a PED involves instillation of fluorescein to monitor the size, location, and depth of the defect. A thorough physical exam should reveal findings such as inflammation in the anterior chamber, eyelid abnormalities, or decreased sensation of the cornea.

 

Persistent Epithelial Disease (PED) Epidemiology 

The Persistent Epithelial Disease epidemiology division provides insights about the historical and current patient pool along with the forecasted trend for every seven major countries. It helps to recognize the causes of current and forecasted trends by exploring numerous studies and views of key opinion leaders. This part of the DelveInsight report also provides the diagnosed patient pool and their trends along with assumptions undertaken. 

 

Key Findings

The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted Persistent Epithelial Disease epidemiology segmented as the Total Incidence of Persistent Epithelial Disease, Etiology-specific cases. The report includes the Incident scenario of Persistent Epithelial Disease symptoms in 7MM covering the United States, EU5 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom), and Japan from 2017 to 2034. 

 

Country Wise- Persistent Epithelial Disease (PED) Epidemiology 

The epidemiology segment also provides the Persistent Epithelial Disease (PED) epidemiology data and findings across the United States, EU5 (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) and Japan. 

The total Incident population of Persistent Epithelial Disease Associated in 7MM countries estimated to be 238,058 cases in 2017.

• As per the estimates, the United States has the highest Incident population of Persistent Epithelial Disease.

• Among the EU5 countries, Germany had the highest Incident population of Persistent Epithelial Disease. On the other hand, Spain had the lowest Incident population with 15,040 in 2017.
