Abstract
Recurrence of granular corneal dystrophy occurred in two patients following two successive penetrating corneal grafts. In the first patient, the deposits involved the central stroma of the donor cornea, almost to the level of Descemet's membrane. The second patient had predominantly subepithelial deposits in bilateral recurrences. Electron microscopy revealed rod-shaped, electron dense material typical of granular dystrophy in both patients.Entities:
