Abstract
This prospective interventional case series study was applied on twenty eyes of nineteen patients with bullous keratopathy.The aim of this study is to evaluate the visual acuity change after femtosecond assisted DSAEK on bullous keratopathy and funch s dystrophy.All patients underwent femtosecond assisted DSAEK and best corrected visual acuity using the Snellen chart was recorded one two, three weeks and one two and three months postoperatively.Results of the study showed a statistical significant improvement in visual acuity that was more significant in the first month postoperatively to a lesser improvement after two and three months.
