Combined procedure was performed in 25 eyes and triple procedure in 32 eyes of Fuchs' dystrophy. Pre-operative visual acuity was 20/100 or less in 63.2% of eyes. The graft was clear in 76% of combined procedure and in 97% of triple procedure eyes. Post-operative visual acuity of 20/40 or better was obtained in 57.9% of eyes. The common cause of graft failure was allograft reaction. The other causes attributable to visual failure were opacification of posterior capsule, secondary glaucoma, macular degeneration and pre-existing glaucomatous cupping. Intraocular lens insertion at the time of surgery helps in rapid visual rehabilitation.
