Region of Interest Densitometry Analysis of Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty Dehiscence on Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography

Purpose: To evaluate a region of interest (ROI) method of analyzing anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) corneal densitometry (CD) in the setting of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) dehiscence. Methods: Retrospective chart review of eyes that underwent (1) DMEK for Fuchs dystrophy (2) between 2018 to 2020 with (3) a partial DMEK dehiscence on AS-OCT, (4) involvement of only one side of the graft, (5) high-quality corneal AS-OCT scan, and (6) location of dehiscence within the central 5.5 mm of the cornea. Image analysis of the ROIs with ImageJ compared the total edematous area, mean stromal CD, and ...
