Research Abstract |
According to a research project, we conducted a research to compare the clinical results after DSAEK(Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty)and nDSAEK(non-Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty). As a result, no statistical difference was observed between these two groups in terms of the visual acuity, and best corrected visual acuity, endothelial cell density. Also, no differencewas observed for donor adherence rate. In vivo laser confocal microscopy revealed that subepithelial opacity, stromal needle shaped bodies, donor recipient interface opacity and particles. Most notably, giant hyperreflective materials were observed at donor recipient interface only in nDSAEK group; these were considered to be necrotic and aggregated host endothelial cells and seemed to have no side effect to postoperative visual acuity.
