Contact lens fitting after corneal transplantation

Contact lens fitting may be required following keratoplasty for optical reasons such as high regular astigmatism, irregular asstigmatism, anisometropia and aniseikonia. Designing a contact lens for a patient who has undergone keratoplasty will require the practitioner to carefully asses all the relevant features of the corneal graft (vulnerability, topographical relationship between the host and donor cornea). Thanking to the developement of new materials and tehnologies of contact lenses manufacturing nowdays, we have great many possibilities and new challenges to end the great process of corneal transplantation and to achieve perfect vision in our patients.
