Purpose: Glaucoma following penetrating keratoplasty (PK) continues to be a serious problem that may ultimately become sight threatening. Knowledge of the risk factors for development of glaucoma following PK, such as preexisting glaucoma, pseudophakia, aphakia, and previous PK, can limit the occurrence and improve the outcome of the keratoplasty. The management of postkeratoplasty (Post-PK) gl...
متن کاملIncidence and risk factors for post-penetrating keratoplasty glaucoma: A systematic review and meta-analysis
OBJECTIVES To establish the incidence and risk factors for post penetrating keratoplasty glaucoma (PKKG). METHODS Studies published between 1947 and 2016 regarding penetrating keratoplasty (PK) were identified using an electronic search and reviewed.
