Samenvatting

Bandage contact lenses can be used following keratoplasty to protect the ocular surface and promote epithelial healing. Rigid gas permeable contact lenses are indicated to correct irregular astigmatism and anisometropia. The Rotterdam Eye Hospital fit 77 keratoplasty patients with contact lenses following their surgery. The methods of fitting contact lenses over the irregular or highly astigmatic surface of a graft are discussed.
