SUMMARY
Two main groups os therapies are shown for the treatment of perforated corneal ulcers: the group of biological tissues used to close or replace the perforated corneal area and the group of adhesives, chiefly the fibrin adhesive, a physiologic substance that turns into an epithelialized scar when used in a corneal perforation, differently from the cyanoacrilate adhesive, an irritating and non-reabsorbable one.
