Abstract
Purpose: to evaluate outcomes of the half-top-hat keratoplasty.
Methods: the study included 58 eyes that had bullous keratopathy and underwent half-top-hat keratoplasty.
Results: 40 (69%) patients had clear corneas whole period of observation. Graft rejection occurred in 1 eye. Mean BSCVA was
0.47±0.21. Average astigmatism was 5.0±2.1 D. Mean cell endothelial count in 2 years was 2189±399 cell/mm2.
Conclusion: Half-top-hat keratoplasty is effective method for bullous keratopathy surgical treatment. the operation is equal pen- etration keratoplasty in refractive results and operation time. But time of rehabilitation is shorter, sealing is better, cell endothelial
count is greater.
