Ultrastructure of the basement membrane underlying the inner wall of SC in human eyes treated with or without
corticosteroids archived from a previous study. 23 (A) Electron micrograph of SC inner wall showing a small region of
basement membrane (arrows) typical for normal human eyes without steroid treatment (65-year-old female). The
amorphous material on the left side was not considered to be basement membrane. (B) The basement membrane
(arrows) underlying the inner wall endothelium of SC appears as a continuous dark band of ECM in a human eye treated
with corticosteroids (63-year-old female). (C) The length of the inner wall basement membrane (BM) is greater in human
