Surgical Management of Bilateral Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency

Surgical Management of Bilateral Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency

At the age of 43 years-old, a man was left with bilateral limbal stem cell deficiency after an ocular alkaline burn with lime, which resulted in corneal opacification. After multiple unsuccessful surgical attempts to restore vision, including penetrating keratoplasties and Boston keratoprosthesis,...
