ABSTRACT:
The homotransplant for lamellar or layer-by-layer keratoplasty is tendon tissue in the form of sections 50 to 300 microns thick.
The employment of sections of tendon tissue as a homotransplant enables to store at any time any required amount of the plasty material, to preserve this material easily and for long periods. Furthermore, the use of the proposed transplant cuts down the operating time and enhances the clinical outcome of layer-by-layer keratoplasty.
