Stroma or substantia propria • Several lamellae of fine collagen f.network • Flattened fibroblasts • G.S.rich in chrodroitin sulfate D. Descemet’s membrane (posterior limiting lamina) • Acellular homogeneous membrane • Can be repaired by endothelial cells E.Endothelium • Like mesothelium in its morphology • Regulate the water content of the stroma → maintain transparency 9
