Abstract

As recent developments and advancements in lamellar and penetrating keratoplasty surgery continue to rise, today's surgeon involved with the treatment of various corneal disorders needs a solid text to stay on the cutting edge. Answering this call is the 'Atlas of Microkeratome Assisted Lamellar Keratoplasty.' Drs. Massimo Busin and Robert C. Arffa have compiled a comprehensive and unique resource that thoroughly describes the techniques of lamellar and penetrating keratoplasty surgery. Inside the 'Atlas of Microkeratome Assisted Lamellar Keratoplasty' ', 'you will not only learn the essential details involved with the techniques, you will understand how these new procedures can improve surgical outcomes for the patient. Some surgical procedures described use a microkeratome to dissect both recipient and donor corneas, thus obtaining interfaces with optical quality compatible with 20/20 vision. Others use the microkeratome to produce the donor, but not the recipient. Additionally, 'Atlas of Microkeratome Assisted Lamellar Keratoplasty' contains step-by-step intraoperative photographs and illustrations of techniques clearly depicting the surgery, as well as methods of avoiding and managing common pitfalls. The novice ophthalmologist, beginning surgeon, and ophthalmic personnel looking to learn, acquire, and refine the latest and most effective treatment options available for various corneal disorders will all benefit from this pioneering text. Advantages over conventional keratoplasty surgery discussed inside include: Surgical standardization Faster post-keratoplasty visual rehabilitation Minimization of post-keratoplasty refractive error Possible neurological reduction of compensation
