Abstract
The DALK big-bubble technique is a valuable treatment in patients with keratoconus. Visual outcome is comparable to standard penetrating keratoplasty (PK) when formation of big-bubble with exposure of the Descemet membrane (DM) was achieved. Clinically important graft-host interface developed in some cases after manual intrastromal dissection. Stromal rejection is a rare complication.
