Outcome of deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty patients with intraoperative Descemet & #39;s membrane perforation: A retrospective cross-sectional study

Conclusion: Not all patients of intraoperative DM perforation (including macro perforation) needs to be converted to penetrating keratoplasty. DALK can be successfully done if the perforation is identified early and managed adequately. This is the only known study which has shown a large series of successful DALK even with macro perforations.
