Abstract

Today "artificial cornea" is used not only to provide a last trial for patients with poor prognosis in conventional graft surgeries, but also to claim ending corneal blindness due to unmet allograft needs. Since 18thcentury when keratoprosthesiswas introduced to ophthalmology literature, with the improvements of its design and materials, the surgical techniques aregetting easier to perform, retention times and rates are improving, prognosis is being better, and its worldwide use has beenincreasing. The absolute term of success in keratoprosthesis surgery is correct patient and surgical technique selection andlife-long follow-up.

Özet

Günümüzde "yapay kornea" sadece konvansiyonel greft cerrahisi ile başarı şansı olmayan hastalar için son çare olarak denenmekten öte, dünyadaki karşılanamayan allogreft ihtiyacına bağlı artan kornea kaynaklı körlüklerin önüne geçmek iddiasıda taşımaktadır. Oftalmoloji literatürüne girdiği 18. yüzyıldan beri keratoprotez tasarım ve materyallerindeki gelişmeler sayesinde cerrahi uygulama teknikleri kolaylaşmakta, retansiyon süreleri ve oranları artırmakta, görmeyi azaltıcı komplikasyonlar sınırlanmakta, prognoz iyileşmekte ve dünyada kullanımları giderek artmaktadır. Keratoprotez cerrahisinin başarısıiçin mutlak şart, doğru hasta ve cerrahi teknik seçimi ile ömür boyu takiptir.
