Objectives:To analyze the outcomes and complications of Descemet‘s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) performed without prophylactic peripheral iridotomy (PI).Methods: Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Institutional, tertiary care eye hospital. Study Population: All patients who underwent DMEK or DMEK combined with phacoemulsification (DMEK triple) for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy, using a standardized protocol between August 2016 and July 2021, were included. Previous glaucoma surgery, laser PI, aphakia, or complicated pseudophakia were excluded. Main outcome measures: Primary outcomes: Incidence of pupillary block (PB). Secondary outcomes: Graft detachment (GD), rebubbling rates, uncorrected (UCDVA) and best corrected logMAR distance visual acuity (BCDVA), and endothelial cell loss (ECL) at six months. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test and stepwise backward regression analysis.Results: 104 eyes of 72 patients were included. Four eyes (3.8%) developed PB; in two of these cases, standard protocol was not followed. Overall minor GD occurred in 43.2% (n = 45); significant GD was present only in 7 eyes (6.6%). Overall slit lamp rebubbling rate was 30% (n = 35), though only four patients were rebubbled in theatre (3.8%). PB, GD, and rebubbling rates did not vary with the surgeon, surgery, or tamponade (air or SF6 gas). UCDVA, BCDVA, and ECL at 6 months were 0.29±0.31, 0.20±0.28, and 40.46±20.36%, respectively.Conclusions: Compared to previously reported outcomes of DMEK with PI, our results of PI less DMEK using a standardized protocol have a similar incidence of pupillary block, graft detachment, and rebubbling, with comparable visual acuity and endothelial cell loss.
