Endothelial keratoplasty for Fuchs dystrophy
We report the case of a 69-year-old female with Fuchs endothelial dystrophy and posterior chamber in-the-bag intraocular lens, whom we treated with DMEK surgical technique. We encountered difficulties both during obtaining the endothelium from the young donor and during the intraocular unrolling and its application on the stroma. We evaluated both preoperative and postoperative the following pa...
متن کاملIridocorneal endothelial syndrome.
A 19 years boy with a 2 years history of reduced and fluctuating vision along with change in pupillary shape and iris colour in his left eye presented to the glaucoma clinic. Ocular examination revealed distinct unilateral stretch holes, iris architecture changes and localized iris atrophy. Intraocular pressure was 16 mmHg in the right and 36 mmHg in the left eye. Gonioscopy of the left angle r...
متن کاملDistinguishing features of the iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and posterior polymorphous dystrophy: value of endothelial specular microscopy.
The literature suggests that posterior polymorphous dystrophy (PPD) may show features such as iridocorneal adhesions, glassy membranes, and pupillary ectropion which are typically ascribed to the iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome. This complicates diagnosis. PPD, unlike ICE, is familial, and ICE, unlike PPD, is usually progressive and frequently complicated by glaucoma: thus it is importa...
متن کاملFuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy: current perspectives.
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common corneal dystrophy and frequently results in vision loss. Hallmarks of the disease include loss of corneal endothelial cells and formation of excrescences of Descemet's membrane. Later stages involve all layers of the cornea. Impairment of endothelial barrier and pump function and cell death from oxidative and unfolded protein stress ...
متن کاملFuchs Endothelial Dystrophy: Pathogenesis and Management
■ Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED) is a progressive disorder of the corneal endothelium with accumulation of focal excrescences called guttae and thickening of Descemet’s membrane, leading to stromal edema and loss of vision ■ The inheritance of FED is autosomal dominant, with modifiers such as increased prevalence in the elderly and in females ■ Corneal endothelial cells are the major “pump” ...
