Femtosecond Laser Assisted Descemet’s Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DASEK) for Treatment of Pseudophakic Bullous Keratopathy [PDF]
Background: In the case of pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK), corneal edema that cannot be removed during cataract surgery develops. A gradual swelling of the stroma develops after an injury to the corneal endothelium.

3D‐Printed Corneal Substitutes: Materials, Fabrication, and Preclinical Progress
Successful clinical translation of 3D‐printed corneal substitutes relies on the interplay between the bioink properties, cellular component, and the fabrication process. These factors influence the critical properties of the construct, including optical transparency, mechanical stability, suture retention, that ultimately govern long‐term stromal ...
