چکیده مقاله:

Purpose: To evaluate the results of lamellar Keratoplasty(LKP) in patients with delayed-onset mustard gas keratopathy without stem cell transplantation surgery.Methods: 28 eyes of 19 veterans with mustard gas keratopathy who underwent LKP were included. The presence of stem cell deficiency in all patients has been proven with impression cytology. Best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA), corneal clarity and corneal graft survival rates were evaluated. Results: The mean patient age was 53.25±6 years and the mean follow-up was 36.07±22 months. The mean preoperative BSCVA was 1.70±0.33 LogMAR which increased to 0.35±0.25 LogMAR after surgery(P<0.05). All corneas were clear without any serious rejection. Conclusion: It seems that stem cells deficiency in mustard gas keratopathy is partial. According to the results of this study, it seems that unlike previous studies, it is no recommended to perform LPK and stem cell deficiency simultaneously.
