Descemet's Membrane layer Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK) is an innovative treatment made to treat corneal endothelial disorder with impressive precision and performance. Unlike standard full-thickness corneal transplants, DMEK concentrates specifically on changing the infected innermost layer of the cornea, the Descemet's membrane, and the endothelial cells.

The advantages of DMEK are many, consisting of boosted visual end results and a lowered threat of difficulties. Since only a thin layer of the cornea is replaced, the patient's corneal structure continues to be greatly intact, adding to premium optical clearness. Moreover, this minimally invasive treatment has revealed lower being rejected rates contrasted to other corneal transplant approaches, such as DSAEK (Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty), making it a recommended choice for eligible candidates.
