Phototherapeutic keratectomy for anterior stromal fibrosis following DMEK
American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2020 Purpose: Anterior stromal fibrosis is often seen in advanced cases of Fuchs endothelial dystrophy or secondary endothelial insufficiency. As Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) can completely eliminate the corneal edema and the guttae in ...
