Article Synopsis
- The study compares the effectiveness of two surgical approaches—Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and Descemet stripping only (DSO)—for treating Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in a clinical trial called DETECT II.
- A total of 60 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either DMEK with a placebo or DSO with a drug called ripasudil, and the main goal is to evaluate visual improvement after 12 months.
- The trial aims not only to assess visual outcomes but also to explore other factors like cost-effectiveness and the incidence of adverse events, with findings planned for dissemination in scientific publications and conferences.
