Preliminary Results of Femtosecond Laser–Assisted Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty

Abstract

Femtosecond laser-assisted Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty was effective in treating endothelial failure with minimal induced refractive astigmatism, limited improvement of BSCVA, and induction of a hyperopic shift. Endothelial cell count and dislocation rate were significant, which may be related to the surgical technique.
