DOI: 10.1038/s41433-018-0038-y
Abstract: The ‘big-bubble’ deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) technique paved the way to redefine corneal anatomy by discovery of a new ‘pre-Descemet/Dua’s layer’. The study of evolution and morphology of these bubbles led them to be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/ico.0000000000003216
Abstract: Introduction: Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) is a corneal transplant technique that removes the host stroma down to either the pre-Descemet (Dua) layer or Descemet membrane. It is most common for the big bubble technique… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000000603
Abstract: Four patients with pseudophakic corneal edema were subjected to pre-Descemet endothelial keratoplasty (PDEK) under the direct guidance of microscope-integrated optical coherence tomography (i-OCT). i-OCT facilitated successful type 1 big bubble formation during donor preparation, debridement… read more here.
