Abstract

Purpose: To determine the indications for PENETRATING KERATOPLASTY (PK) in IRAN over an 11-year period.Methods: All EYE BANK records of patients .who underwent PK from 1994 to 2004 at ophthalmologic centers throughout IRAN were reviewed.Results: During this 11-year period, a total of 19,668 cases were operated. The most common indication for PENETRATING KERATOPLASTY was KERATOCONUS (34.5%), followed by corneal opacity and scar (18.7%), pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (9.2%), corneal dystrophies (6.5%), aphakic bullous keratopathy (6.1%), and regraft (5.3%). There was an increasing trend in rates of KERATOCONUS and pseudophakic bullous keratopathy and a decreasing trend in aphakic bullous keratopathy during this period. (P<0.001) No significant change of trend was noted in the corneal opacity and scar, regraft, and corneal dystrophy groups.Conclusion: KERATOCONUS is the most common indication for PENETRATING KERATOPLASTY in IRAN.
