Combined Cataract and Corneal Transplantation Surgery Without Viscosurgical Devices.

Background: The most common complications after performing the triple Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK), which combines the cataract phacoemulsification, intraocular lens implantation and DSAEK procedure, are detachment or decentration of the donor lamella and postoperative interface haze. One reason for this is the retained viscoelastic used during surgery.

Objective: This study aimed to describe triple DSAEK procedure without the usage of viscoelastic and to discuss its potential benefits on surgical outcomes.
