Abstract
We report a case of traumatic globe rupture following blunt trauma in the left eye of a 20-year-old male who had undergone deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty for keratoconus. Extrusion of the crystalline lens and prolapse of vitreous through the inferior 180° donor host junction was noted. After the repositioning of the graft, anterior vitrectomy and repair of graft host junction, the graft regained clarity in eight weeks with good visual recovery.
