We present a new method for treating complicated corneal gaps for patients status post radial keratotomy (RK). After healing of fungal keratitis in a patient status post RK, we removed the oedematous corneal sector and put anterior tailored segment of a corneal button previously used for Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty. Within 6 months, patient's best-corrected visual acuity was 20/20.
