PURPOSE: To compare the visual outcomes of Descemet membrane (DM)-on and DM-off after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) using the big-bubble (BB) technique in keratoconus patients.
METHODS: In this prospective trial, keratoconic eyes undergoing DALK procedures with the BB technique were randomized into 2 groups: a donor cornea without DM (group 1; 29 eyes) or with DM (group 2; 30 eyes). These groups were compared with respect to best-corrected visual acuity and contrast sensitivity while wearing gas permeable contact lenses and also endothelial cell counts.
RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups with regard to best-corrected visual acuity and contrast sensitivity using gas permeable contact lenses as well as endothelial cell counts at 3, 6, and 12 months. After 1 year, the mean (±SD) postoperative visual acuity CL (with contact lenses) was 0.05 (±0.01) in the DM-off group and 0.05 (±0.01) in the DM-on group (P = 0.956). Mean postoperative endothelial cell counts were 2425.0 (±123.7) and 2306.7 (79.9), respectively (P = 0.443), and corneal thicknesses were 527.9 (58.3) and 556.6 (47.3), respectively (P = 0.150). During the follow-up period, very few complications occurred and neither group had a predominance of adverse events at 3, 6, 12, or 24 months.
CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, DALK procedures using the BB technique for keratoconus with DM-on or DM-off presented no significant differences regarding the visual outcomes or endothelial cell counts.
