Résumé

Corneal transplant surgeries have a broad range of indications with outcomes largely dependent on surgeon experience. Traditional manual techniques have certain limitations pertaining to the preparation of donor tissue and the recipient bed that might affect the predictability of visual outcomes. Use of lasers for keratoplasty procedures not only improves the repeatability and consistency of the technique, but also enables the surgeon to control the thickness and shape of the transplant tissue tailored to the specific condition. Despite the advantages, cost-effectiveness and technical know-how remain the major challenges. We discuss the various techniques of laser-assisted keratoplasties with respect to their methods, precision, and efficacy in various corneal indications.
