Ten eyes of nine patients with endothelial dystrophy requiring iridectomy for acute angle-closure glaucoma developed corneal edema sufficient to require penetrating keratoplasty. Because of the proximity of iris to cornea, simultaneous lens extraction was carried out to prevent malignant glaucoma. Penetrating keratoplasty using techniques presented here provided improved visual acuity and control of glaucoma in all cases.
9例内皮营养不良患者因急性闭角型青光眼需行虹膜切除术，其中10只眼发生了严重的角膜水肿，以至于需要进行穿透性角膜移植术。由于虹膜与角膜相邻，同时进行了晶状体摘除术以预防恶性青光眼。采用本文介绍的技术进行穿透性角膜移植术，在所有病例中均提高了视力并控制了青光眼。
