Abstract

Sclerocornea is a rare non-progressive, non-inflammatory usually bilateral congenital corneal opacity that can be associated with both ocular and systemic abnormalities. It could be inherited in 50% of cases. Ill-defined limbal architecture and vascularization in association with ocular comorbidities results in poor outcomes with corneal transplantation. This narrative review summarizes the current literature on etiology and clinical presentation in sclerocornea. With regards to keratoplasty, it focusses on key elements in decision making, highlights the role of investigations and discusses practical surgical pearls to enhance outcome of keratoplasty in these eyes.
