Today's corneal and anterior segment surgeons are in need of a comprehensive text that covers all endothelial keratoplasty procedures, including DSEK, DMEK, and DSAEK.
DSEK: What You Need to Know About Endothelial Keratoplasty
is the first text to explore the rapid evolvement of endothelial keratoplasty (EK) procedures. Endothelial keratoplasty is part of a revolution in corneal transplant surgery in which surgeons perform disease specific tissue replacement, as opposed to full thickness replacement of the cornea for all conditions. Today, patients are demanding EK procedures such as DSEK, DMEK, and DSAEK, instead of standard transplant methods because these newer methods are safer while the visual recovery is quicker and more predictable.

In addition, a diverse group of contributing authors provides a wide array of insights and tips for better patient outcomes.
