Rotational autograft, reconstruction of the anterior segment, and intraocular lens implantation.
Six patients were affected by extensive central corneal scars and disruption of the anterior segment. Reconstruction of the anterior segment, synechialysis, membranectomy, and vitrectomy were performed as first-step procedures. Rotational autografts combined with either anterior or posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation were then performed. The results in this series of severely traumatized eyes were satisfactory with a follow-up of three years.
