A The third type of LCD that the corneal stroma not involved, showing branching nerve fibers in the corneal stroma. B Some of amyloid encapsulating the branching nerve fibers in the corneal stroma, with the nerve fibers becoming thickened and segmented, defined as Grade I of neurotropic phenomenon of LCD. C A large number of amyloids wrapping the nerve fibers in the corneal stroma, with the nerve fibers becoming all significantly thickened, without segmentation, defined as Grade II of neurotropic phenomenon of LCD
