Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: : We report the case of a 68-year-old man with sclerocornea with corneal plana who presented with progressive pseudophakic bullous keratopathy. He underwent Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty. Although a single air bubble was needed for the initial lenticule detachment, there was notable improvement in corneal clarity and visual acuity over the course of a year.
