Abstract

Pediatric corneal transplantation is one of most important means to avoid corneal blind and promote infant vision development, but low scleral rigidity increases the forward displacement of the lens-iris diaphragm and significant refractive errors after corneal transplantation. The underlying disease process will also influence the timing of surgery. For high risk of grafts failure in pediatric penetrating keratoplasty, it is potential for excellent long term outcome to determine operative opportunity cautiously and prevent and treat appropriately grafts rejection, glaucoma, infection and corneal erosions.
