Abstract

Cataract is a common complication after corneal transplantation, with a higher risk in cataract surgery. Cataract surgery has a significant effect on the corneal endothelium after corneal transplantation. By evaluating the condition of the corneal endothelium and the safety of the cataract surgery after corneal transplantation, patients can receive more appropriate treatment and achieve the best vision outcomes. This is accomplished by using advanced cataract surgical equipment and proper surgical techniques combined with long-term postoperative follow-up. Key words: Corneal transplantation; Cataract extraction; Corneal endothelium
