corneal graft soon

[Jimbo]

Hello folks, well, I am going in to get my corneal graft on my left eye soon as I can't see much at all out of it. The procedure will be a deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty, in which they will try and preserve my corneal endothelial cells to reduce the risk of graft rejection.

I just need to ask you all one thing. If I get this graft, could it complicate or void me for scoliosis surgery in the future? I am just concerned that the eye may start to reject after going through such an traumatic procedure as a spinal fusion. Anyone have any ideas on this.

Please say a prayer for me I really need this eye operation to work. I don't know if I could handle any more bad news at the moment.

fortuna secunda!

Jimbo,

I can't answer you, but just wanted to wish you luck. Fingers are crossed that you can have both ops without them affecting one another - & that these are the last of your surgeries!

Take care.

Jimbo,

Fingers crossed, happy thoughts and well wishes sent your way.

Don't know the answer to your question, but wanted to wish you all the very best for your eye op and hope everything goes well. xx

Hi Jimbo,
Sorry I can't answer your question either. All I know is that my cousin's husband had a corneal transplant and can see well for the first time in his life. I will say a prayer for you. Sally
