    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Corneal Surgery

    Background:

    • Complicated leucomata present significant challenges in achieving successful visual rehabilitation.
    • Keratoplasty (corneal transplant) is a primary surgical option for these conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the outcomes of keratoplasty in patients with complicated leucomata.
    • To evaluate the impact of comprehensive patient management on surgical success.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 50 cases of complicated leucomata treated with keratoplasty over two years.
    • Detailed review of pre-operative, operative, and post-operative management strategies.

    Main Results:

    • Keratoplasty in complicated leucomata cases generally yields suboptimal optical results.

  • However, meticulous pre-operative, operative, and post-operative care demonstrably enhanced visual outcomes.

    • Conclusions:

    • While challenging, keratoplasty can provide improved vision in complicated leucomata.
    • Optimized perioperative management is crucial for maximizing success rates in these complex corneal cases.
