“…6 Extrapolation from observed endothelial cell loss rates predicts a median graft survival of 49 years for DALK vs 17 years for PK. 7 But current DALK techniques are technically challenging. Intraoperative complications and conversion to PK are common.…”

“…[5][6] In general, PKP patients show accelerated long-term endothelial cell loss compared to DALK patients, who have lower rates of longterm cell loss. 7 Toric phakic IOL implantation was one of the options to manage this patient with high astigmatism, intolerance to both glasses and semirigid gas permeable contact lenses, and good visual potential, with best-corrected distance visual acuity of 20/30, which was an indication of a low irregular astigmatism in her case. The patient declined corneal refractive surgeries, knowing their limitations to fully correct her astigmatism and risk of complications.…”

“…Entsprechend kann bei dieser tiefen anterioren lamellären Keratoplastik (DALK, Abb. 3) keine Abstoßungsreaktion gegen das Hornhautendothel auftreten, wodurch das Transplantatüberleben statistisch gesehen deutlich gesteigert wird [16]. Die Endothelzellen werden nach DALK zudem nicht nur nicht abgestoßen, die Endothelzelldichte ist auch deutlich höher als nach pKPL [16,17].…”
