Slit-lamp photograph of the case.. Notes: (A) Preoperative slit-lamp photograph showing an opaque and edematous cornea due to endothelial dysfunction. (B) One year postoperatively, the corneal graft clarity was excellent, with a high endothelial cell density (4,032 cells/mm2, 6.0% decrease from preoperative donor cell measurements).

Slit-lamp examination revealed an opaque cornea due to advanced endothelial dysfunction (Figure 1A).
Preoperative analysis of the infant donor endothelial cells.. Notes: The endothelial cell density of the donor tissue was as high as 4,291 cells/mm2, with no striae.

Since the elasticity and tenderness of the infant donor tissue were extremely high, there were no striae on the surface of the endothelial cell layer after the donor sclerocorneal tissue was harvested (Figure 2).
