Abstract

PK with simultaneous pars plana GDD repositioning or placement showed comparable short- and long-term IOP control to that of previous studies with limbal-based GDD. The rate of corneal graft failure and the rate of immunologic rejection were comparable to or lower than those reported in other series with primary limbal-based GDD.
