The corneal layers are better visualized using the pentachrome stain kit. The pentachrome stain kit also finely stains the rod cells and allows for easy differentiation of the microstructures of the retina and cornea. The pentachrome stain kit is therefore a finer stain for the fibrillar structures. However, the nuclear staining is not as strong and the inflammatory cells might be less precisely identified.
