The aim of this study was to assess the value of endoscopy during deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) by visualising the posterior cornea. This allows the surgeon to determine whether air injection had succeeded in stripping Descemet's membrane and endothelium from the posterior corneal stroma. ⋯ Endoscopy provides an effective tool to visualise the posterior corneal surface during DALK, using air dissection. This technique may become a standard adjunctive procedure during DALK.
