Redoing a corneal transplant

I recently began to have headaches. Some of the doctors attributed it anxiety. At the time of
the attack I experienced a visual change in my left eye. I had corneal transplants over 15
year ago on both eyes. I have never able to get good correction on the left eye. For the past
8 years or so I have not worn any correction on that eye due to cornea shape. I am considering
a regraft of the cornea. I am 40 years old. How safe is a regraft and the end result visually?

It depends on the condition of your cornea and the rest of your eye. Only a eye MD that has examined your can answer your questions.
