PURPOSE: To report the resolution of anterior corneal fibrosis after Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), in a patient with chronic corneal edema and anterior stromal scarring.
METHODS: A 63-year-old woman, with a history of Fuchs endothelial dystrophy, presented with increasing discomfort and gradual visual loss in her right eye. Clinical examination revealed long-standing bullous keratopathy accompanied by marked subepithelial fibrosis (SEF). Based on the low postoperative visual potential due to glaucomatous optic neuropathy, we decided to proceed with DSAEK.
RESULTS: During the follow-up period, SEF was found to gradually resolve. Corneal clarity was restored and an improvement in visual acuity was observed up to 12 months after surgery.
CONCLUSION: DSAEK alone may represent an effective therapeutic option for the restoration of impaired corneal clarity in patients with long-standing corneal edema and concomitant anterior subepithelial scarring.
