Bubble technique for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty tissue preparation in an eye bank: air or liquid?
PURPOSE To compare the big-bubble method using air and liquid as medium of separation for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) lenticule preparation in an eye bank. METHODS Donor corneas (n=20) were immersed in liquid [tissue culture medium (TCM)]. Air and liquid was injected using a 25-gauge needle in the posterior stroma or as near to the stroma-Descemet membrane (DM) phase as ...
متن کاملEye bank prepared versus surgeon cut endothelial graft tissue for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty
The purpose of this article is to examine outcomes of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) performed with cornea bank (CB) prestripped tissue and surgeon stripped tissue (SST).This retrospective study examined subjects who underwent DMEK with CB or surgeon prepared tissue for Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), corneal thickness, endothelial ce...
متن کاملRepeat Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty
Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of secondary Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) after failed primary DMEK. Design: Retrospective, interventional case series. Participants: Fifty-five DMEK recipients 42 to 89 years of age. Methods: An initial consecutive series of 1655 DMEK surgeries was reviewed to identify cases of secondary DMEK after failed primary DMEK (n 1⁄4 55). A paired ...
متن کاملAutomated donor tissue preparation for descemet membrane automated endothelial keratoplasty (DMAEK): an experimental study.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Graft harvesting for Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) occurs manually and demonstrates surgical difficulties. In the current study, a mechanical automated technique for preparing a donor Descemet membrane (DM) carrying autologous endothelium for DMEK was evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten rabbit corneas were placed on an artificial anterior chamber ...
متن کاملChandelier Illumination for Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty
PURPOSE To describe a simple technique that uses posterior chandelier illumination during Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty in cases of severe bullous keratopathy (BK). METHODS Five eyes of 4 patients with advanced BK undergoing Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty were retrospectively analyzed. The pupil of the host eye was not treated with mydriatic or miotic agents. The chan...
