[Limbokeratoplasty to Treat Lattice and Granular Corneal Dystrophies].

Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde - 1 Jun 2018

Lapp Thabo, Maier Philip, Böhringer Daniel, Reinhard Thomas

Abstract excerpt

The surgical technique of limbokeratoplasty (limbo-KP) was initially established for the treatment of severe limbal deficiencies. Besides improving visual acuity, surgery is aimed at ensuring complete, long-lasting epithelialization of the ocular surface. Due to the extension of the indication spectrum, limbo-KPs are also used in various forms of epithelial/stromal corneal dystrophies such as lattice and granular...
