Abstract :
Purpose: To report endothelial corneal graft rejection after administration of topical latanoprost eye drops. Case Report: Two eyes of two patients with a history of multiple intraocular procedures prior to penetrating keratoplasty developed endothelial graft rejection one month after administration of topical latanoprost. Cystoid macular edema developed simultaneously in one patient. Conclusion: Latanoprost may trigger endothelial graft rejection in susceptible eyes.
