METHODS: The data of all patients undergoing PK or ALK from January 2010 to December 2017 was retrospectively reviewed, with the indications during 2010-2013 and 2014-2017 compared. RESULTS: A total of 1869 eyes were included, among which 1405 eyes(75.2%) had PK and 464 eyes(24.8%) had ALK. The leading indications were suppurative keratitis(36.8%), keratoconus(15.5%), herpes keratitis(13.1%), and regraft(10.5%). In eyes undergoing PK, the top four indications were suppurative keratitis(38.7%), herpes keratitis(15.3%), keratoconus(12.6%), and regraft(12.5%) during 2014-2017, with the proportion of suppurative keratitis and herpes keratitis decreased while regraft and keratoconus increased compared with 2010-2013. In eyes with ALK, suppurative keratitis(30.8%), keratoconus(24.1%), corneal dystrophies and degenerations(10.6%), and corneal dermoid tumor(9.7%) were the top four indications, and there was no significant difference for the proportion of each indication between 2010-2013 and 2014-2017. CONCLUSION: Suppurative keratitis is the most common indication for PK and ALK at Qingdao Eye Hospital during 2010-2017, followed by keratoconus, herpes keratitis, and regraft. In eyes treated with PK, the proportion of suppurative keratitis and herpes keratitis decrease while regraft and keratoconus increase during 2014-2017 compared with 2010-2013.展开更多
