A majority of the ARK cases (61.5%) had a graft providing useful vision for the patient 2 years after corneal transplantation, but the visual gain was modest at best. Longer follow-up time is required to evaluate functional graft outcomes. Despite the introduction of limbal stem cell transplantation as a suitable treatment, PK was the most common surgical method in the present study.
