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...

متن کاملNew technique of Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty
Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) is a surgical technique for cornea replacement, which the healthy host corneal endothelium is preserved. Keratoconus patients are those who benefit most from a successful DALK procedure, once the endothelium of these patients is usually normal and should therefore be maintained. Several studies comparing visual outcomes between penetrating keratoplasty...
متن کاملAnterior Lamellar Keratoplasty in Keratoconus
Keratoconus (KC) is a progressive, bilateral, but usually asymmetrical ecstatic corneal disease, characterized by progressive corneal protrusion and thinning, that leads to corneal surface distortion. The reported incidence in the general population varies from 1.3 to 25 per 100,000 per year across different populations, with a prevalence of 8.8–229 per 100,000. Onset typically is at puberty wi...
