Abstract

Purpose: To report visual rehabilitation with a native Pintucci Keratoprosthesis (KPro) after a severe ocular surface Chemical Burn in a male patient. Case Report: A 41‑ year‑ old man experienced a bilateral severe Chemical Burn 5 years previously. Earlier penetrating keratoplasty and keratolimbal allografts were unsuccessful in both eyes, and neither of the eyes had vision better than light perception. Both corneas were opaque and conjunctivalized. Because of severe dry eye and total limbal stem cell deficiency, the left eye was considered for a Pintucci‑ type KPro. In the first stage, the ocular surface was reconstructed with an oral mucus membrane graft, and a KPro was placed under the skin and orbicularis oculi muscle. Three months later, the KPro was removed and implanted in the left eye. During seven months after the KPro implantation, the anatomical position was acceptable, and his best corrected visual acuity was 2/10. Conclusion: Bearing in mind the successful results of the native Pintucci KPro in this case of severe acid burn, using this type of Keratoprosthesis in patients with total limbal stem cell deficiency and severe dry eye is recommended.
