Management of LSCD in children is challenging and appears to be somewhat different from that of adults. Limited data in the literature indicate that cultivated or simple limbal epithelial transplantations (CLET/SLET) are primarily preferred in children. Although the tendency to take small tissue from the healthy eye is noteworthy, conventional limbal allograft and autograft transplantations also show promising results without any further complications in at least 1 year follow-up period.
