Dr. Ahmar Sajjad, ophthalmologist at Eye Surgeons of Indiana, discusses DMEK (Descement Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty) and Fuchs' Dystrophy.
The cornea is the clear, dome-shaped layer on the front of your eye that helps focus light, so you can see clearly.
If your cornea becomes damaged or diseased, treatment options are available to restore your vision, reduce pain and improve the appearance of your cornea. At Eye Surgeons of Indiana, we have cornea specialists who can help you.
Fuchs’ Dystrophy—swelling and clouding of the cornea. This defect begins with the destruction of the endothelium cells that regulate the fluid in the cornea. With these cells gone, the fluid builds up and causes the cornea to swell. One of its first signs is hazy vision in the morning. As the disease progresses, the fluid buildup in the cornea will remain until evening, which means patients will then experience hazy vision all day long. If left untreated, blisters can form in the cornea and eventually burst.
