The future of lamellar keratoplasty
Current Opinion in Opthalmology, 1999New surgical techniques in lamellar keratoplasty, including phototherapeutic keratectomy, automated lamellar keratectomy, plano-epikeratoplasty, deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty, combined amniotic membrane and limbal transplantation, large-diameter corneoscleral lamellar keratoplasty, and posterior lamellar keratoplasty, have recently become ...

Lamellar keratoplasty in keratoconus
Albrecht von Graefes Archiv f�r Klinische und Experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 1979The authors present the results of 11 keratoplasties in cases of keratoconus, comparing the visual acuity and the ocular refraction before and after the operation (ophtalmometry, objective and subjective refractometry). The statistical data indicate a meaningful flattening of the corneal curvature (12.84 dpt average) and a mean reduction of the myopia ...

A Case of Interface Keratitis Following Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2012 Anterior lamellar keratoplasty (ALK) is indicated in patients with anterior corneal opacities. Benefits over penetrating keratoplasty include quicker visual rehabilitation, less postoperative astigmatism, and preservation of the host endothelium, thus ...

<i>Purpose:</i> To describe a new technique of lamellar surgery and to compare the results of 150 cases treated with this technique with those observed in as many cases of penetrating keratoplasty (PK). <i>Patients and Methods:</i> One hundred and fifty deep lamellar keratoplasty (DLKP) procedures were performed in patients ...

Clinical Techniques in Equine Practice, 2005 Corneal transplantation is a viable and successful surgical technique in the horse. Full thickness penetrating keratoplasty (PK) may be performed for melting ulcers, iris prolapse/descemetoceles, and full thickness stromal abscesses (SA). Deep lamellar endothelial keratoplasty (DLEK) and posterior lamellar keratoplasty (PLK) are split thickness ...

Lamellar Keratoplasty for Hyperopia
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1996ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Lamellar keratoplasty for hyperopia (automated lamellar keratoplasty for hyperopia) can correct hyperopia by weakening the cornea with a deep lamellar resection. The safety and efficacy of the procedure is uncertain. METHODS: Twenty-four eyes of 17 patients underwent hyperopic lamellar keratoplasty using the ...

ABSTRACT: Lamellar keratoplasties often result in decreased postoperative visual acuity from irregularities and opacities in the interface, sometimes have difficulty in matching the thickness of the resected recipient bed and the donor tissue, and may develop vascularization of the host-donor interface.

The evolution of lamellar keratoplasty
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000Recent advancements in lamellar keratoplasty have two aspects: the refinement in surgical technique, which has improved postoperative visual outcomes and the transplantation of specific tissues of the donor cornea, such as limbal stem cells. Stem cell transplantation has expanded dramatically as a method of ocular surface reconstruction.

New Perspectives on Lamellar Keratoplasty
Advances in Therapy, 2014Lamellar (anterior and posterior) keratoplasty entails the surgical replacement of diseased-only corneal tissue, while healthy host corneal tissue is preserved. Selective keratoplasty offers several advantages in comparison to penetrating keratoplasty such as a lower rate of graft rejection, less endothelial cell loss, faster/superior visual ...
