Abstract
We present a case of a 31-year-old male with a past ocular history significant for keratoconus in both eyes, who underwent Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) for his left eye and experienced graft-host interface neovascularization and interface hemorrhage as a complication. He was treated initially with removal of sutures and optimization of the ocular surface followed by subconjunctival bevacizumab, which subsequently improved his hemorrhage and neovascularization.
