After penetrating keratoplasty, many corneal surgeons adjust sutures to reduce astigmatism and then leave the sutures in place indefinitely. Nylon sutures can hydrolyze and break years after surgery. In a series of human penetrating keratoplasties, we studied the use of polyester (Mersilene) sutures that do not hydrolyze.
