چکیده
PURPOSE To report a keratoconus case with bilateral horizontal Vogt's striae. METHOD The clinical findings of the patient and the development of the direction of striae are discussed. RESULTS Vogt's striae, defined as vertical stress lines, are rarely horizontal. One patient with unilateral horizontal stress lines on his left eye has been reported in the literature. Our patient has horizontal Vogt's striae in both eyes. CONCLUSION Horizontal Vogt's striae may be seen in keratoconus as a rare slit-lamp biomicroscopic finding.

Abstract Background: Although corneal graft may be rejected by the immune system of the recipient it remains as the most successful operation as compared to transplantation of other tissues. Since most patient do not reject the grafts, those who do are in the minority.
