Influence of Supine Positioning on the Outcomes After Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK)

This study compares lying on your back for 1 day versus 5 days after a certain eye surgery (DMEK) for Fuchs' dystrophy. Researchers want to see if longer back-lying helps the new eye tissue stick better and if it causes more side effects like back pain.
