Figure 2. — Kaplan-Meier survival curves of eyes that underwent autologous CLET. (A): Analysis of 444 eyes that underwent CLET for ocular burn-induced limbal stem cell deficiency. A successful outcome was noted in 279 (62.8%) of the 444 eyes. The survival probability of autologous CLET was 95.7% ± 0.01% at 42 days and 64.5% ± 0.02% at 1 year with median survival of 4.3 years. (B): Survival was significantly longer and more stable in eyes without risk factors for failure (p = .012). (C): Survival was greater in eyes with best corrected visual acuity of 20/200 or better (p = .003). (D): Survival was shorter in eyes with one corneal surgery or more prior to CLET (p = .0009). (E): Survival was shorter in eyes with simultaneous keratoplasty performed along with CLET (p = .0012). Abbreviations: CLET, cultivated limbal epithelial transplantation; LK/PK, lamellar keratoplasty or penetrating keratoplasty; SR, symblepharon release.
