Researchers compared DSAEK. which transplants a small layer of stroma, with transplanting Descemet’s and endothelium alone, without any stroma at all. A higher percentage got 20/20 in the latter, which makes sense- less interface issues. The progress in this area of surgery is astounding, and promises to make it more standardized and easier.
