Purpose To determine if sex is associated with corneal epithelial wound healing time in patients with persistent corneal epithelial defects (PCEDs). Methods Retrospective case series on patients with PCED from November 2014 to January 2019. Records of 127 patients with diagnosis of PCED were reviewed. Patients with an epithelial defect that lasted more than two weeks in the absence of an active corneal infection were included. Main outcome was corneal epithelial wound healing time. Results 55 patients (29 males) with a mean age of 65.3 ± 16.5 years were included. No difference was found between female and male patients in terms of risk factors, age, treatment strategies or intervals between visits (median of 15 days in females and 12 days in males; p = 0.24). Median duration of the PCED was 51 days (IQR 32-130), with a median number of 5 clinical visits (IQR 4-8). Female patients had significantly longer healing times (p = 0.004) and a corresponding increase in the number of clinical visits (median of 7 visits vs. 5 clinical visits in males, p = 0.012). Conclusion Results from this study suggest female patients with PCED might have a longer corneal epithelial wound healing duration and may therefore require earlier intervention.
