Keratoconus with acute hydrops and perforation. Brief case report.

P E Rubsamen1, W M McLeish.   

Abstract

Keratoconus is a corneal thinning disorder usually localized to the paracentral cornea. Though acute hydrops has been well described, perforation in keratoconus is an extremely rare event. We report a case of keratoconus with acute hydrops and perforation.
