Abstract: | PURPOSE AND METHODS: We report a case in which, although we planned to perform a penetrating keratoplasty for corneal stromal opacity with normal corneal endothelium, the host's Descemet's membrane became inadvertently detached and the operation resulted in double anterior chamber deep lamellar keratoplasty (DLKP). RESULT: After surgery, the patient's corrected visual acuity was 20/30. CONCLUSION: Double anterior chamber DLKP is safe and valuable. |
