Abstract

This chapter includes corneal surgeries performed in the center such as corneal transplantation (PK, DALK, DSAEK, DMEK) with all possible complications: graft rejections, recurrence of previous diseases, reactivation of previous infection, and other rare complications. Photos of conjunctival limbal autotransplantation, Boston type 1 keratoprosthesis surgery, and corneal tattooing are included as well. Some interesting cases are discussed with management. Several possible complications after excimer laser procedures are also presented.
