Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Corneal Surgery
  • Vision Science

Background:

  • Corneal endothelial disorders necessitate transplantation.
  • Penetrating keratoplasty (PK) was historically used.
  • Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) has largely replaced PK.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review literature on pre-Descemet's endothelial keratoplasty (PDEK).
  • To describe experiences with PDEK.
  • To highlight PDEK as a recent advancement in EK.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on PDEK.
  • Retrospective analysis of clinical experiences with PDEK.

Main Results:

  • PDEK represents a latest iteration in endothelial keratoplasty.
  • Clinical experiences with PDEK are presented.

Conclusions:

  • Endothelial keratoplasty, specifically PDEK, is a significant advancement.
  • PDEK offers a promising alternative for corneal endothelial disorders.
