Christopher J. Rapuano, MD

CORNEA

Peter and Ruth Laibson Cornea Service Chief Endowed Chair
Chief, Cornea Service
Professor of Ophthalmology, Sidney Kimmel Medical College of
Thomas Jefferson University

Dr. Rapuano has been interested in research of the field of Cornea since his residency when he was 1st author of a large study on indications and outcomes of repeat penetrating keratoplasties. He has pursued a wide variety of topics since that time including several papers on changing indications of all corneal transplants and repeat grafts at Wills Eye over the decades. Another important interest is corneal infections – he has published numerous articles on a wide variety of corneal infections, including a series of papers on the changing spectrum of corneal ulcers seen in the Wills Emergency Room and another series of papers on acanthamoeba keratitis. Dr. Rapuano is perhaps best known for his many papers on the excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK). He was involved in the FDA trials for PTK and wrote about evolving techniques and chronicled his clinical results for the 1st two decades after FDA approval.
