DSAEK (Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty) is one of the options for corneal endothelium disease, which in some patients can result in a residual hyperopia after the procedure. Usually 6 to 12 months after corneal transplantation refraction is already stable. This report describes a therapeutic option used in a 54 years old patient with Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy submitted ...

Purpose To report a case of a Descemet membrane's (DM) detachment after radial keratotomy (RK). Methods A patient (male) underwent RK (16 cuts) 20 years before referring to the Eye Center of Humanitas (Milan) for a progressive visual loss. The slit-lamp examination showed severe corneal stromal edema and a large DM detachment in the lower half of the cornea. Anterior segment optical coherence...

purpose: to compare clinical and confocal scan outcomes after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (dsaek) performed for fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy versus pseudophakic bullous keratopathy. methods: in this retrospective comparative study, 47 consecutive eyes of 39 patients with the diagnosis of fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy (n=29, group 1) or pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (...

BACKGROUND Laboratory analysis and optical quality assessment of explanted hydrophilic intraocular lenses (IOLs) with clinically significant opacification after posterior lamellar keratoplasty (DMEK and DSAEK). METHODS Thirteen opacified IOLs after posterior lamellar keratoplasty, 8 after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), 3 after descemet membrane endothelial kera...

Purpose Iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome is a progressive anterior segment disorder that can be tricky to treat. Keratoplasty commonly used treat corneal edema in ICE syndrome. However, glaucoma an important risk factor affecting graft survival. To address this question, we designed retrospective cohort study evaluate the effect of Spokewise Iridotomy (SI) on Descemet Stripping Automated...
