Comparison of triple-DMEK to pseudophakic-DMEK: A cohort study of 95 eyes.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Previous comparative studies show that triple Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) (i.e. phacoemulsification followed immediately by DMEK) has either equivalent or better visual outcomes than DMEK in pseudophakic patients.

Clinical outcomes of prestripped, prestained, and preloaded Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (”P3 DMEK”)

Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
PURPOSE: Despite faster healing and reduced risk of rejection, some surgeons are hesitant to adopt Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) due to difficult intraoperative tissue preparation.

Preferred practice pattern for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty surgeries: A survey of Indian corneal surgeons

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Purpose: This study aims to assess the preferred surgical technique of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) among corneal surgeons in India, and barriers in performing DMEK surgeries amongst the non-DMEK surgeons.

A goat eye, wet lab model for training in Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
Here we describe a new, non-human, ex-vivo model (goat eye model) for training surgeons in DMEK surgeons. In a wet lab setting, goat eyes were used to obtain a pseudo-DMEK graft of 8 mm from the goat lens capsule that was injected into another goat eye ...

Cluster of Symptomatic Graft-to-Host Transmission of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 in an Endothelial Keratoplasty Setting

Ophthalmology Science, 2021
Purpose: Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) is becoming the gold standard to treat corneal endothelial dysfunctions worldwide. Compared with conventional penetrating keratoplasty, infectious complications after DMEK are ill defined.

Late central graft detachment due to double endothelial layer after repeat Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2023
Purpose: To report late central graft detachment after repeat Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) without visual reduction. Observations: A 71-year-old patient with Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy received a DMEK in his left eye. At 11
