Preoperative Posterior Stromal Ripples as Predictive Biomarkers of Visual Recovery After Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty

Abstract

The presence of pre-PSR is associated with slower visual recovery and lower final visual acuity after DMEK while postoperative PSR confer a higher risk of rebubbling. PSR represent a valuable prognostic biomarker both before and after DMEK.
