Abstract:

Purpose — to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of peripheral lamellar keratoplasty (LKP) for treating relapsing pterygium. Material and methods. The study was conducted in the period of 2007—2017 and included 84 patients (91 eyes) with stage II—IV relapsing pterygium. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) before the surgery was in average 0.65±0.28 (0.01 to 1.0). Astigmatism varied from 0.5 to 6.5 D (mean 3.41±2.06). All patients underwent pterygium removal surgery followed by LKP. The analyzed parameters included visual acuity, refraction error before and after the surgery, frequency of relapses and post-operative complications. Results. The follow-up period was 4 months to 10 years (mean 30.9±25.4 months). BCVA after the surgery was 0.1—1.2 (mean 0.83±0.24), post-operative astigmatism — 0 to 3.5 D (1.08±0.62). BCVA has improved and remained stable in 86 (94.5%) out of 91 eyes, decrease of visual acuity was observed in 5 cases (5.5%). Frequent relapse of pterygium happened in 5 cases (5.5%), was non-progressing and required no surgical treatment. Conclusion. LKP is an effective and safe method of surgical treatment of relapsing pterygium that provides good optical, tectonic and anti-relapsing results thanks to barrier properties of the layered transplant.
