Penetrating keratoplasty for corneal perforation in an obtunded patient.

A ventilator-dependent patient obtunded from severe head trauma suffered a spontaneous corneal perforation with lens extrusion secondary to nosocomial Pseudomonas keratitis. Despite the patient's guarded condition, a successful tectonic penetrating keratoplasty with lens removal was performed for restoration of the globe. Upon recovery, the patient's only useful vision was in her operated eye. Preventative measures against prolonged corneal exposure in an obtunded patient include copious artificial tears and lubricants, use of scleral lenses, moisture chambers, bandage contact lenses, or tarsorrhaphies.
