Spontaneous Reattachment of Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty Lenticles

摘要

WE READ WITH INTEREST THE ARTICLE ENTITLED "SPON-taneous Reattachment of Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty Lenticles," by Hayes and associates. The authors reviewed a significant number of spontaneously attached Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) lenticles and provided information about natural course of graft detachment after DSAEK. We would like to offer some comments and observations.The study includes a cohort of patients who demonstrated spontaneous reattachment of detached lenticles after DSAEK. It would be useful to know the denominators: the absolute number of graft detachments and the number and eventual outcome in the patients (if any) who did not demonstrate reattachment on conservative approach. Also, was the reason to observe rather than intervene in all these cases uniform?
