摘要
Among corneal dystrophies, the keratoconus is one of the most frequently observed among young adults A clinico pathological case is reported in a 13-year-old-girl of African origin, The diagnosis of bilateral keratoconus was established based on the obvious changes of the corneal lenses, curvature and thickness, After an unsuccessful attempt to improve vision with contact a keratoplasty was finally performed on one side to remove the pathological cornea, Its histopathological study found the characteristic changes of keratoconus: breaks of Bowman's layer and corneal thinning.
