We present a new method for treating complicated corneal gaps among patients who have previously undergone radial keratotomy (RK).
After complete healing of a fungal keratitis in a patient who has undergone RK, we removed the oedematous corneal sector and put anterior tailored segment of a corneal button previously used for Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty. The patient's best-corrected visual acuity reached to 20/20 6 months later. This technique will compensate for oedematous parts without putting a significant effect on other parts such as purse string sutures.
