Endothelial keratoplasty has revolutionized the treatment of corneal endothelial dysfunction and lowered the threshold for treatment by providing rapid visual rehabilitation and setting a high standard for safety and efficacy. Over time, endothelial keratoplasty techniques have evolved toward the use of thinner tissue to optimize visual outcomes; refinements have facilitated donor tissue preparation, handling, and attachment; and adaptations have expanded utilization in eyes with challenging ocular anatomy. Despite early concerns about graft longevity, emerging 10-year endothelial cell loss and graft survival data have been encouraging. A shortage of human donor corneas restricts utilization in many areas of the world and is driving a search for keratoplasty alternatives. Further work is needed to expand the donor supply, minimize impediments to adoption, optimize graft survival, and improve refractive predictability.

This a case report of acute hydrops with interface fluid syndrome in a patient with post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia treated with compression sutures. A patient with post-LASIK ectasia presented with acute hydrops and fluid accumulation in the LASIK flap–stromal interface sequentially in both eyes. Full thickness compression sutures were applied to appose the edges of the Descemet tear, and this resulted in a rapid resolution of stromal edema and interface fluid. The patient had best distance visual acuities of 20/40 and 20/60 at the last follow-up in the right and left eyes, respectively. Hydrops along with fluid in the interface needed early intervention to prevent complications such as epithelial ingrowth and interface haze. Compression sutures were useful in this case to help bridge the gap between the margins of Descemet tear, hastening the resolution of stromal edema and interface fluid.
