[Complete replacement of the conjunctiva by skingrafting and reconstruction of lidedges with tendograft (author's transl)].
Following total loss of conjunctiva and the superficial corneal layers after metalburns the bulbus was wholly covered over by the remaining skin. The lids were dissected from the globe and a shell was inserted carrying a Thiersch graft. At a later date the lidedges were strengthened by a tendon graft.
