title: [Postoperative astigmatism after keratoplasty. Efforts to minimize using selective suture removal with computerized topography control].
abstract: The computer-assisted Corneal Topography allows to give an early description of the irregular surface of corneal transplants. With this new method we followed up 109 patients, who had been operated by combined interrupted and continuous suturing. Our experiences with selective suture removal are reported.
