Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries

There are many types of corneal transplant surgeries, each with its own associated benefits and risks. 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) are three of the most common types of corneal transplants.

PK is a relatively new surgery that uses a surgical knife to create a hole in the front of the eye and then sews up the wound. This technique is thought to be more efficient than other types of corneal transplants because it does not require as much removal of tissue from the surface of the eye. DSEK and DSAEK are older procedures that use slightly different techniques. In these surgeries, a small incision is made in the front of the eye and then the doctor removes a thin layer of tissue called the stroma. This tissue is then replaced with artificial material, usually, collagen or silicone, which holds cells in place and helps restore vision. DMEK is a more recent procedure that uses advanced technology to replace damaged or missing jellyfish-like cells in the stroma with healthy donor cells. Salk is an older procedure that uses a strips of tissue to replace the damaged or missing cells in the stroma.
