FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method involves cutting out corneal disk to 2/3 of its thickness. Two-step self-sealable scleral tunnel is built and 2-3 corneocenteses in the cut-out corneal disk bed. Anterior and posterior synechias are removed through scleral and corneal incisions. Lens phacoemulsification and following intraocular lens implantation, iris plastic repair and pupil formation are done. Next to it, the whole corneal disk is excised with all its thickness and removed to be substituted with donor cornea.
EFFECT: reduced risk of traumatic complications in making the most part of operation on closed eye; restored normal anatomical relations of intraocular structures and aperture properties of iris.
