Methodes | Retrospective study on eyes that underwent a corneal graft between 2010 and 2014. Indication for the procedure, pre and sequential post operative data and rejection rate are analyzed. (exact number of patients to be dertermined, around 50-100) |
Resultaten | Postoperative visual acuities show a significant upwards trend and usually exceeds preoperative visual acuity significantly. Rejections also appeared in a certain proportion of eyes. |
