Lamellar corneal surgery is increasing frequency as penetrating corneal transplantation decreases it' s indications in corneas with normal endothelium. Intraoperative OCT helps the surgeon to dissect the stroma and preserve the descemet' s membrane and endothelium, eventhough the big bubble technique fails. Lamellar surgery ensures a quicker and better rehabilitation for the eye, a lower and shorter topical steroid treatrnent and so, unfrequent complications related to it.
