ABSTRACT Corneal perforation is a medical emergency whose severity may jeopardize the integrity of the eyeball. Results are presented of a series of 25 patients and their 25 eyes with corneal perforation of varying etiologies. This group constitutes the largest percentage of patients with herpetic keratopathy undergoing primary therapeutic keratoplasties. Two of them underwent optical retransplantation at Hermanos Ameijeiras Clinical Surgical Hospital. Of the total eyes, 83.4% were preserved, with a visual acuity of 0.05 to 0.8 with optical correction.

Palavras-chave : Keratoplasty; corneal perforation; herpetic keratopathy.
