Resource maximization during COVID-19 crunch – A novel graft marking technique to use one cornea for two recipients for either Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty or deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
During pandemic, eye banks worldwide faced drastic reduction of corneal retrieval. Since precut tissues are uncommon in India, the onus is on corneal surgeons to maximize the donor corneal usage.

Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty for endothelial decompensation after previous radial keratotomy

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2019
Purpose: To report Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) for endothelial decompensation in an eye with previous radial keratotomy. Observations: A history of radial keratotomy may hasten endothelial dysfunction.
