The cornea is the most commonly transplanted tissue in medicine. The main cause of
corneal graft failure is allograft rejection. The incidence of graft rejection depends on the …

Despite the improving results that have been noted with penetrating keratoplasty, graft
failure remains a significant problem. The causes of graft failure are quite varied. Primary …

Objective To evaluate the use of topical cyclosporine, 0.05%(Restasis; Allergan Inc, Irvine,
California), for the treatment of mild, moderate, and severe dry eye disease unresponsive to …

The search for alternatives to allotransplants is driven by the shortage of corneal donors and

Corneal neovascularization (CNV) may be a physiological response to various stimuli, but a
chronic and persistent upregulation of neoangiogenesis can result in pathological CNV …

Corneal transplantation is among the most successful solid organ transplants. However,
despite low rejection rates of grafts in the 'low-risk'setting, rejection can be as high as 70 …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the primary indications for corneal transplantation in patients with
repeated keratoplasties, graft survival, the causes and risk factors for failure. SETTING …

Background: In high-risk keratoplasty, the failure rate from rejection is high, especially in the
early postoperative period. If rejection could be prevented during this period, then ultimately …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy and side effects of tacrolimus in the management of
patients with high-risk corneal and limbal grafts. DESIGN: Noncomparative case series …
