To assess the role of various types of contact lenses (CL) after penetrating and lamellar keratoplasty, we reviewed all studies that were related to CL fitting in post-keratoplasty (full-thickness and lamellar) eyes between 1990 and 2024 by using relevant search keywords. The demographic data, indications for CL fitting, duration between keratoplasty and CL fitting, CL design and fitting methodologies, refractive outcomes, topographic and biomechanical changes, aberrometry, specular microscopy, corneal thickness, graft survival, and complications were analyzed. A total of 32 original studies and seven case reports were evaluated.
