Brief Summary:
To evaluate the impact of preoperative corneal thickness on visual outcomes following Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) or Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK)

Condition or disease
Corneal Changes of Membranes

Detailed Description:
Patients underwent DSAEK or DMEK for endothelial dysfunction, from October 2013 to November 2016. Patients aged > 18 years and with an indication for posterior lamellar graft surgery, such as Fuchs dystrophy, were included. Exclusion criteria included a history of penetrating keratoplasty in the study eye and a need for a penetrating keratoplasty following endothelial graft failure. Visual acuity, central corneal thickness (CCT) and graft thickness were measured preoperatively, and at postoperative day 7 and months 1, 3 and 6.
