Descemet's Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK) is an innovative corneal transplant treatment that recovers vision by replacing damaged endothelial cells in the cornea. Unlike standard full-thickness transplants, DSEK focuses on selectively getting rid of and changing only the impacted layer of the cornea, resulting in faster healing times and minimized risks. This minimally invasive method has come to be a relied on alternative for individuals with conditions such as Fuchs' dystrophy, corneal edema, or endothelial dysfunction.

During the DSEK procedure, a slim layer of contributor corneal cells, including the Descemet's membrane layer and endothelium, is hair transplanted to recover appropriate liquid regulation and clarity to the cornea. This precise approach boosts the cornea's ability to preserve its natural openness, significantly enhancing vision. Clients usually experience obvious improvements in their vision within weeks of the surgery, with ideal outcomes appearing after a few months.
