PURPOSE To analyze the 6-month anterior and posterior topographic changes of the cornea after deep lamellar endothelial keratoplasty. METHODS Orbscan topographies of 22 eyes from 21 patients with corneal decompensation were retrospectively analyzed: 11 eyes received a 9-mm scleral access incision (large-incision group) and 11 eyes received a 5-mm scleral access incision (small-incision group)...
