Popis: An experimental design of keratoprosthesis anchored into the limbal sclera is presented. The surgical procedure enables a watertight junction between the keratoprosthesis and the globe. Dehiscence of the keratoprosthesis-limbal sclera junction occurs when an area of locus resistentia minoris is created in the lower limbus. An artificial drainage system is necessary for the durability of such a keratoprosthesis.
