Donor-implanted Guttata in Transplanted Corneal Tissue: Clinical Signs and Impact on Graft Survival
Fuchs endothelial dystrophy is a common condition within the general population and is likely to be present in donor corneas. We assessed three cases of DIG, and the results highlight the need for improved screening of this condition prior to transplantation and its consideration in the early postoperative period if corneal edema is present despite graft attachment.
