Key Points

The aim is to compare treatment outcomes between two methods for central Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy.
Retrospective analysis of two groups of patients with central Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy.
Groups matched for age, sex, and dystrophy severity.
Both treatment groups showed improvements in corneal health metrics.
No significant differences were noted between the two techniques.

Implication

Retrospective analysis compares outcomes of two treatment methods in patients with corneal dystrophy, indicating efficacy of intervention.

Abstract
