Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this study is to compare visual acuity outcomes of two types of endothelial keratoplasty: 1) Ultrathin Descemet's Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK) or 2) Descemet's Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK). Half of the participants will be randomized to have DSAEK and the other half will have DMEK.
