Hello
It seems from the history that you are having corneal blindness as a result of chemical injury to cornea.
Stem cell transplantation will help you to replace the damaged and scarred cornea. Hence you can consider stem cell transplantation after penetrating keratoplasty.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
