Penetrating keratoplasty and raised intraocular pressure. A brief review of the problems and its management
Abstract
Postkeratoplasty glaucoma is a serious sight-threatening problem that is likely to remain with us for the foreseeable future. It is common yet unsatisfactory to deal with. It is only by meticulous assessment of patients and rigorous aftercare that the condition can be adequately managed. Modern surgical techniques may improve the prognosis in cases which are uncontrolled by traditional methods.
