title: [Use of a new model of keratoprosthesis made from carbon in treatment of dense leukoma after ocular burns].
abstract: Discussed are the results of kerato-prosthetics in 12 cases of severe post-burn leukoma by means of a new model of keratoprosthesis with a carbon bearing. The material for construction of the carrier part of the prosthesis is based on carbon fibres and Polish technology worked up by the Institute of Material Engineering of the Mining-Metallurgic Academy in Krakow.
