Abstract
This study presents a two-step surgical approach to treat severely scarred ocular surfaces by means of a combination of COMET and PKP. Clinical outcomes suggest that this treatment may be beneficial for the maintenance of the reconstructed ocular surface by providing oral mucosal epithelium around the corneal graft.
