The purpose of this article is to demonstrate a novel technique using modified continuous blanket suture (MCBS) to fix the amniotic membrane (AM) in different severe ocular surface disease lesions. The MCBS techniques were used to fix the AMs of 5 representative patients with different ocular surface lesions related to severe ocular surface diseases. In all cases, stable adherence of the AM was maintained until the epithelialization of the ocular surface was completed. No early detachment, dissolution, or dislocation of the AM patch was observed. During follow-up, all patients acquired a smooth and acceptable ocular surface without any persistent epithelial defect, infection, or ulceration. The MCBS method achieved good AM fixation on the ocular surface in cases of severe ocular surface lesions and could prevent the early detachment of the AM and promote the epithelialization of the ocular surface.
