ABSTRACT

AlMTo evaluate the effect of intralamellar cryolysis of cornea with amniotic membrane transplantation on painful bullous keratopathy ( PBK) .?METHODS: Randomly selected 156 cases ( 156 eyes ) with PBK who underwent surgery of intralamellar cryolysis of cornea with amniotic membrane transplantation. Followed up with 2 ~ 3mo, the symptoms of eye pain, corneal epithelial blisters, foreign body sensation and postoperative complications were observed.?RESULTS:Pain symptoms disappeared in all patients, and corneal epithelial blisters disappeared in 130 cases (83. 3%).
