Abstract

Cortina and associates also suggested placing a more posterior pars plana tube with a lamellar corneal patch graft to decrease and eliminate friction between the contact lens edge and the tube and to prevent such erosions from occurring entirely.3 One reservation we have regarding the suggestion by Patel and associates to observe stable erosions in patients without leaks, hypotony, or discomfort is the continued concern for potential ocular infections.
