Deep Lamellar Keratoplasty in Keratoconus With Healed Hydrops

Purpose: To report a case of successful deep lamellar keratoplasty (DLK) in a patient with keratonous after healed hydrops. Methods: A 17-year-old boy underwent DLK for corneal scar secondary to healed hydrops in a case of keratoconus. Results: The graft was clear, with a postoperative best spectacle-corrected visual acuity of 20/20. Conclusions: DLK may be a viable option in healed hydrops.
