Modified suturing contact lens for penetrating keratoplasty
Ophthalmology
|November 1, 1978
Abstract:
The authors have previously described a suturing contact lens that protects the corneal endothelium by aiding in the maintenance of the anterior chamber during penetrating keratoplasty. This report describes structural modifications of the suturing contact lens, which improve its stability and effectiveness. An additional configuration for use in corneal lacerations is presented.
