Evaluation of interface quality in organ-cultured lamellar corneal transplants [PDF]
, 2012 Background: With increasing numbers of lamellar keratoplasties, eye banks are challenged to deliver precut lamellar donor tissue. In Europe, the most common technique of corneal storage is organ culture which requires a deswelling process before surgical

Evolving Techniques and Indications of Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty
Türk Oftalmoloji Dergisi, 2021 Endothelial keratoplasty has replaced traditional penetrating keratoplasty for the treatment of corneal endothelial dysfunction. It offers faster, more predictable, stable visual recovery and low rejection rates while the surgery itself is less invasive.

Journal francais d'ophtalmologie, 2009 In recent years, endothelial keratoplasty has become increasingly popular in the management of endothelial pathologies of the cornea. This technique is primarily indicated in pseudophakic keratopathy and Fuchs dystrophy and significantly reduces known complications that occur after penetrating keratoplasty (i.e., major astigmatism, graft junction ...

Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015 Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) allows for selective replacement of damaged endothelial cells, using only donor Descemet's membrane with endothelium. However, early adoption by corneal surgeons has been limited (illustrated by graft registry reports: 0.7% all corneal transplants in the USA; 0.4% in Australia for 2011) due to ...
