Purpose:
|
To describe a new technique in descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) .
|
Methods:
|
In this technique, we use easily available materials (mainly a Nelaton tube) to make an injector for loading DSAEK lenticule and also easily pulling it (using a gauge 23 needle) into the eye. In this presentation, we report outcomes of this technique in four cases.
|
Results:
|
Using these available instruments could easily lead to a clear postoperative cornea. Mean endothelial cell density (ECD) loss at sixth postoperative month was 26%.
|
Conclusion:
|
We proposed a novel effective user-friendly and affordable technique to perform DSAEK.
