Preparing uniform-thickness corneal endothelial grafts from donor tissues using a non-amplified femtosecond laser.
Corneal grafts for Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty are commonly prepared using mechanical microkeratomes. However, the cuts produced in such way render corneal lenticules that are thinner centrally than peripherally, thus inducing a hyperopic shift. Here we describe a no...
