We performed penetrating keratoplasty on two eyes of disciform keratopathy secondary to dendritic keratitis. Both corneal buttons were examined by electron microscopy. One specimen was from a 61-year-old female. She had had dendritic keratitis 17 years before with one recurrence of disciform keratitis. The epithelial layer was thin. The keratocytes showed degenerated nuclei. Stromal lamellae retained their normal structure. Endothelial cells appeared as clear ones and contained atrophic metochondria with numerous granules of high electric density. There were empty vesicles with high electric density limiting membrane. Another 51-year-old male had multiple recurrences of disciform keratitis. His cornea showed destroyed Bowman's membrane. The stroma was infiltrated by numerous inflammatory cells containing eosinocytes. Stromal fibers were irregularly arranged. Recurrences of herpetic stromal keratitis appeared to have damaged the Bowman's membrane and the stroma. Examination of removed corneal buttom may serve as guidelines for postoperative treatment.
