“…The use of topical anaesthesia and minimal tissue damage in these new techniques has aided in early visual recovery and reduced incidence of post operative infections and complications in patients undergoing simultaneous cataract surgeries. But simultaneous bilateral PK hasn't gained much acceptance due to increased risk of graft rejections and post operative complications, leading to visual morbidity [1,2]. But strict operation theatre asepsis and efficient sterilization techniques can aid in preventing these complications.…”

“…But there still exists some hesitancy amongst eye surgeons to perform simultaneous bilateral Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK). It is yet to gain popularity due to increased risk of post operative infections and graft rejections [1,2]. But these complications can be combated with strict operation theatre asepsis, good and efficient sterilization techniques and under the cover of potent antibiotics.…”

“…If so, these precursors might be able to supply new keratocytes and thus, they could a potentially promote corneal wound healing. Keratocyte precursors may also have a role in the healing of corneal stromal wounds, since proliferation and migration of residual keratocytes from the peripheral part of the stroma appear to promote healing (Wilson & Kaufman, 1990). …”

“…O índice de rejeição do aloenxerto foi similar para todos os grupos com exceção do ceratocone, embora no grupo dos leucomas tenham sido encontradas córneas muito neovascularizadas no pré-operatório, o que representa um fator de alto risco para falência do enxerto (8,10,15) . As nossas indicações de CP diferem das apresentadas nos países desenvolvidos, pelo grande número de casos de leucomas.…”
