Influence of rebubbling on anterior segment parameters and refractive outcomes in eyes with DMEK for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology Apr 13, 2021

Agha B, Forster R, Kohnen T, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective institutional cohort study to assess the potential impact of rebubbling on the anterior segment parameters and refractive outcomes in patients with graft detachment following uneventful DMEK for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED). They compared 31 patients (34 eyes) with rebubbling for graft detachment following Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) to 28 patients (33 eyes) with uneventful DMEK. Refractive outcome and corneal parameters measured by Scheimpflug imaging were comparable in eyes with rebubbling and controls, apart from higher cylinder values. Prior to rebubbling, however, reduced visual acuity and increased endothelial cell loss should be considered, particularly in eyes with circumscribed graft detachment.
