    Abstract

    PURPOSE:

    To design a mold for processing optical power in epikeratophakia.

    METHOD:

    With excimer laser a corneal graft with appropriate optical power shall be got on the formula of the mold's radius curvature.

    RESULTS:

    Based upon the formula from the data, a 12D mold was accomplished to obtain a suitable cornea lens for epikeratophakia.

    CONCLUSION:

    The 12D mold presents the value to some extent in processing the desired optical power of corneal graft for those patients requiring epikeratophakia.
