  • Title: [Keratoplasty and reconstruction of the anterior segment of the eye after severe ocular trauma (author's transl)].
    Author: Barraquer J.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1979 Sep; 175(3):295-301. PubMed ID: 393901.
    Abstract:
    Severe ocular trauma is frequently not limited to the cornea, but affects the entire anterior segment of the eye. This requires "reconstruction" of the anterior segment. The procedure is long and complicated, but it is definitely justified to attempt to restore and save some vision, espeically in one-eyed patients or when both eyes have been affected by the accident.
