A 4.5 mm. penetrating keratoplasty for leucoma adherens of 4.5 mm. or less.

The aim of the present study is to determine the best size and type of corneal graft (lamellar or penetrating, as judged by the incidence of postoperative complications) for use in cases of central or peripheral leucoma adherens measuring 4-5 mm. or less. Penetrating grafts smaller than 4 mm. rarely remain transparent and those above 7 mm. also often become opaque and may be complicated by glau...

Risk Factors for Failure of Keratoplasty in Keratoconus: Penetrating vs. Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty

Purpose: To determine the etiologic factors on rejection and failure rates and ocular surface changes after corneal transplantation by either DALK or PKP, in cases of keratoconus (KCN). Methods: In this cross-sectional study, considering the existing data, patients with keratoconus referring to Labbafinejad Medical Center from 2006 to 2016, who underwent corneal transplantation, were enrolled a...
