BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in vitrectomized eyes.
METHODS: A multi-surgeon, retrospective case series of previously vitrectomized eyes that underwent DMEK between 2013 and 2018 at Moorfields Eye Hospital. Patients' demographics, preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative data were collected.
RESULTS: In total, 14 eyes of 13 patients, aged 63 ± 14.6 years were included. Three eyes had intraoperative posterior dislocation of the DMEK graft into the vitreous cavity, two of these were aphakic and one had an unstable PCIOL. Postoperatively, one graft had a total detachment and required repeat keratoplasty for primary failure, two grafts had visually significant partial detachment and needed rebubbling. Three patients developed high intraocular pressure (IOP) and one required an urgent glaucoma drainage device 1-month post-DMEK. The mean corrected distance visual acuity was 0.81 ± 0.42 logMAR preoperatively, and postoperatively was 0.6 ± 0.51 at 3 months (p = 0.414); 0.69 ± 0.81 at 6 months (p = 0.684); and 0.7 ± 0.8 at 12 months (p = 0.658).
CONCLUSIONS: DMEK in vitrectomized eyes has unique challenges that necessitate careful preoperative planning. We observed a significant proportion of dislocated grafts in vitrectomized eyes with either unstable IOL or aphakic. Moreover, vitrectomized eyes with secondary glaucoma may be particularly vulnerable to uncontrolled IOP postoperatively and close monitoring is essential to prevent worsening of visual acuity. We recommend that DMEK may not be a feasible option in eyes that are prone to collapse, in particular aphakic vitrectomized eyes, as opposed to DSAEK or penetrating keratoplasty.
