Abstract
In conclusion, graft central thickness assessed by ultrasound pachymetry is a useful method for observing patients who have undergone penetrating keratoplasty. Even when slit-lamp examination reveals no complications, patients with an increase in graft thickness above the upper limit of normal for the postoperative time point under consideration are at greater risk of failure.
