PREFACE<\/p>\n
The journey of \u201cCorneal Transplantation\u201d book started in late 1990s with the joint efforts of corneal surgeons, including<\/p>\n
Professors Rasik B Vajpayee, Namrata Sharma, Geoffrey C Tabin, and Hugh R Taylor. The conceptualization of developing a<\/p>\n
practical handbook of corneal surgeries was aimed to cater to the needs of both a surgeon practicing in a rural area as well as<\/p>\n
a fellowship trained surgeon. First edition of this book was brought out in the year 2002, followed by a second edition in 2010.<\/p>\n
The previous decade has witnessed significant popularization in terms of expanding indications of various techniques<\/p>\n
of corneal grafting such as the techniques of anterior as well as posterior lamellar keratoplasty, use of femtosecond laser<\/p>\n
for assisting various steps of corneal transplantation and limbal stem cell transplantation. This updated version \u201cthe third<\/p>\n
edition\u201d is a conglomeration of 74 chapters, including the updated versions as well as the new ones.<\/p>\n
New highlights of this edition include many innovative techniques of corneal transplantation such as Superficial Anterior<\/p>\n
Lamellar Keratoplasty, Diamond Knife-assisted Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (Dia-DALK), Cannula Assisted<\/p>\n
DALK, Groove and Peel DALK, Thin Lenticule Descemet\u2019s Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty, Pre-Descemet\u2019s<\/p>\n

Bowman\u2019s Layer Transplantation. A separate section on indication specific techniques of corneal transplantation has been<\/p>\n
included, consisting of a detailed description of several clinical conditions.<\/p>\n
Providing cutting-edge information from experts all over the world, has been the primary focus of this book, since its<\/p>\n
inception. The aim is to help the corneal surgeons understand the intricacies of various techniques of corneal transplantation<\/p>\n
including the novel as well as the established ones. Relevant clinical photographs, sketch diagrams and surgical videos have<\/p>\n
been incorporated to further provide a lucid understanding of the facts.<\/p>\n
Future treatment options for the management of corneal pathologies include use of tissue-engineered cornea,<\/p>\n
mesenchymal stem cell and cultured corneal endothelial cell therapy, use of ROCK inhibitors and gene therapy. These<\/p>\n
modalities are still in their initial phase of use, with limited number of patients being enrolled in certain parts of the world.<\/p>\n
End of this decade, will further determine their feasibility and effectiveness for the management of different types of corneal<\/p>\n
pathologies.<\/p>\n
