Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study to determinate if there is a correlation between visual acuity gain in patients who underwent a Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) corneal keratoplasty and the central thickness of the graft.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Were included in this study eyes who underwent a DSAEK for endothelial dysfunctions indication (mainly acquired after phacoemulsification or for Fuchs dystrophy) between early 2012 and mid 2015 at CHR Metz-Thionville (Mercy Hospital) Were excluded eyes presenting pathologies (e.g. Age-Related Macular Degeneration, or diabetic macular edema) which are known to induce visual acuity decrease, non-related to the success of the graft and graft failure cases. Central graft thickness was measured in Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Topography (AS-OCT RS-3000 Nidek). Visual acuity gain was defined by the differential between pre-operative visual acuity (VA) and post operative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) obtained during post-operative visits.
