The cornea successfully re-epithelialized under the glue 2 months later (Figure 1), and the BCL and glue were subsequently removed.
(a) Slit-lamp photography of the left eye showing a clear central cornea with a mild inferonasal scar (red arrow) at 2-year post-corneal gluing. (b) Anterior segment optical coherence tomography showing significant corneal remodelling and thickening with an area of full-thickness corneal hyper-reflectivity (yellow arrow) corresponding to the scarred area.

Two years after cataract surgery, the DED had improved significantly, with the left eye remaining settled with an inferior corneal scar (Figure 2a and b) and a CDVA of 20/30 (-3.25/+3.75 x 70).
