Cost of Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) in Abu Dhabi
Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) cost in Abu Dhabi is between USD 2000 to USD 18000.
Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) is a partial-thickness corneal transplant which involves only the donor stroma, leaving the recipient's own Descemet membrane and endothelium. The procedure offers advantages over penetrating keratoplasty (PKP), including a closed-system operation and a decreased risk of postoperative immune rejection.
Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) techniques can be divided into two main categories. In pre-Descemet membrane procedures, some stromal layers remain adherent to DM. Descemet membrane procedures involve complete stromal dissection and baring of DM. In all the techniques a partial-thickness trephination of the cornea is performed depending on pachymetry.
