Eccentrically Punched Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty Grafts Expand the Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty Donor Pool: One Eye Bank's Reappraisal of the Central Clear Zone Convention

Conclusions: Offsetting the DMEK punch can recapture corneas otherwise excluded from the DMEK donor pool because of a failure to meet the conventional central clear zone criteria, and by our estimation may help eye banks meet the growing demand for DMEK tissue while maximizing the transplant potential of every cornea.
