Because of the immunologically privileged nature of the cornea, the graft rejection rate is less than 10% for low-risk keratoplasty. But when the cornea performed 2 or more quadrants of corneal neovascularization after ocular trauma or infection, the graft rejection rate is more than 65%, it is called high-risk keratoplasty. This study will observe the graft survival of high-risk corneal transplantation using mixed component cornea from different donors.
