Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries

There are many types of corneal transplant surgeries, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the more common types of corneal transplants include penetrating keratoplasty (PK), Descemet’s stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK/ DSAEK), Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK), superficial anterior lamellar keratoplasty (SALK), and artificial cornea transplant (Keratoprosthesis).

PK is the most common type of corneal transplant surgery, and it involves the removal of the damaged surface layer of the eye’s lens and replacement with a new, synthetic lens. This surgery is generally recommended for people who have severe vision impairment due to cataracts or a refractive error. DSEK is a similar surgery that replaces the damaged surface layer of the eye’s lens with a new, artificial material called Descemet’s membrane. DMEK is a procedure that replaces the damaged surface layer of the eye’s lens with an artificial material called Descemet’s membrane endothelial graft. DALK is a type of KPR that replaces only part of the damaged surface layer of the eye’s lens, while SALK replaces all of the damaged surface layers. Finally, Keratoprosthesis is an artificial cornea transplant that replaces the entire cornea with an artificial implant.
