A member asked:
When i was 13-years-old, i had two eye cornea transplants. now that i'm older, are there other treatment options for my eyes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: if the second corneal transplant was successful and is clear, allowing good vision, then nothing need be done . If the graft is rejecting, the eye will lose clarity and become red and irritated. The most likely treatment option at this stage would be the need for topical eyedrops administered by a corneal specialist to treat graft rejection.
