Comparative outcomes of penetrating and component endothelial cell corneal allografts in outbred sheep [PDF]
Lamellar (component-cell) corneal transplantation is replacing penetrating keratoplasty for some corneal disorders in humans; but the relative risks of immunological graft rejection for the two procedures are uncertain.

Congenital bilateral folds in Descemet’s membrane with high astigmatism
We present the case of a boy with congenital bilateral folds in Descemet’s membrane, causing high astigmatism and myopia. There are multiple causes of folds and tears in Descemet’s membrane.

Exploring the precision of femtosecond laser-assisted descemetorhexis in Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty [PDF]
Objective Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) remains a challenging technique. We compare the precision of femtosecond laser-assisted DMEK to manual DMEK. Methods and Analysis A manual descemetorhexis (DR) of 8 mm diameter was compared with

A Fine Line: Identifying the Dua’s Layer in Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging
The Dua’s layer, also known as the pre-Descemet’s layer, is situated in the posterior cornea between the stroma and Descemet’s membrane. This ultra-thin layer has various clinical implications such as in lamellar corneal surgeries.
