Descemet’s Membrane Detachment - An Update

Delhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Descemet’s membrane is basement membrane of corneal endothelial cells, which in turn are responsible for maintaining corneal transparency. Numerous causes can lead to Descemet’s membrane detachment (DMD), with the most common etiology being post-surgical.
