Fig1
Diffuse corneal stromal oedema was observed (9-6 o'clock) that spared the inferior nasal area of the graft (Fig. 1).
Preoperative anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) of left eye. It demonstrates explicitly the Descemet membrane detachment, the overlying corneal graft oedema and graft thickness measurement (1165 mum). White arrow points towards the area of corneal thinning

Fig2
Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT, DRI OCT Triton: Topcon Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) revealed a DM detachment, with no DM breaks, localized to the area of the marked oedema (Fig. 2).  
Three-month postoperative appearance of left eye. a Slit-lamp photograph and b anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) showing resolution of the corneal graft oedema (graft thickness is measured to be 640 and 653 mum) and restoration of the graft-host junction structural anatomy

The postoperative course was uneventful and the graft remained clear after a follow-up of 3 months (Fig. 3a). AS-OCT showed successful graft repositioning and a fully attached DM (Fig. 3b).
