Corneal autografting is a safe and effective procedure for selected patients, yielding satisfactory visual recovery. Using a 0.5 mm oversized graft minimizes post-operative complications in the recipient eye.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Corneal diseases necessitate advanced surgical interventions.
  • Corneal autografting offers a potential solution for visual restoration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail a systematic approach for corneal autografting.
  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of this technique.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 3 patient case records.
  • Analysis of outcomes following corneal autografting procedures.

Main Results:

  • All patients experienced satisfactory visual recovery.
  • Oversized grafts (0.5 mm) reduced post-operative complications.
  • A temporary ocular hypertensive phase occurred with a 0.5 mm undersized graft in a phakic blind eye.

Conclusions:

  • Corneal autografting is a safe and effective method for select patients.
  • A preferred technique involves initial surgery on the blind eye, using a 0.5 mm oversized graft, cataract extraction if needed, and a temporary keratoprosthesis.
