Abstract Purpose This case report demonstrates the effectiveness of a combined unique soft contact lens design and hypertonic saline at reducing corneal edema symptoms. In addition, this case shows that using tomographic data is invaluable for detecting and monitoring of these presentations. ...
Methods: The EndoArt (EyeYon Medical, Israel) is a flexible, 50-μm thin artificial endothelial layer that matches the cornea’s posterior curvature and functions as a fluid barrier at the posterior stroma, replacing the diseased endothelium. ...
It works by partially sealing the posterior cornea, decreasing the flow of liquid and establishing a new equilibrium to maintain metabolism. This initial study had two principal goals, explained Dr Lapid-Gortzak: to demonstrate the adherence of the EndoArt to the cornea and establish a thinner cornea over the follow-up period. The inclusion ...
