Subconjunctival Emphysema After Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK)
نویسندگان
چکیده
DSAEK has recently evolved as a preferred method in place of PKP. After DSAEK, we experienced subconjunctival emphysema, decreased air bubble in the AC and low IOP. This could lead to complications, higher rate of dislocation or infection. We should control the wound closure with suture when in doubt.

متن کاملModified Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty for Congenital Hereditary Endothelial Dystrophy
A 19-year-old male with congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED) presented with severe bilateral corneal clouding precluding any view of the intraocular structures. He underwent modified Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) technique including a suture pull-through technique to prevent lens damage. Surgery resulted in progressive clearing of the cornea and d...
متن کاملDescemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty
Endothelial keratoplasty is at present the gold standard for surgical treatment of corneal endothelial pathologies not associated with significant corneal scar. Tremendous progress has been made in recent years in improving the technology of endothelial keratoplasty techniques, such as descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) and descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty. ...

PURPOSE To assess the relationship of intraocular forward scattering and corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) with best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) after Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), and to compare these parameters between DSAEK and non-Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (n-DSAEK) groups. METHODS This retrospective stud...
