Corneal transplantation has been around for many years. Understanding of the corneal anatomy and physiology through decades of worldwide research has given the steps to an enormous evolution in techniques and technology which has made corneal microsurgery more precise and reproducible. From rudimentary trephines and instruments to microqueratomes and now day��?s femtosecond lasers. Even more, the possibility of a full visual recovery combing corneal, anterior segment and refractive surgery is an everyday possibility. Here we discuss the combination of current technology, techniques and knowledge for optimal corneal transplantation and ocular reconstruction.
