Giemsa stain of hyperreflective dot. In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) and corresponding Giemsa stain of two different patients are shown. In a and c, the patient whose IVCM showed numerous hyperreflective dots (blue arrows) in the conjunctiva also showed numerous neutrophil- and monocyte-like inflammatory cells (red arrows) in a scrape sample of conjunctiva over filtering bleb. In b and d, the patient showed no hyperreflective dots in the IVCM and likewise saw no appearance of inflammatory cells but only fragments of cells (black arrows) from the scrape sample
