Descemet membrane detachment can be seen after any intraocular procedure but is more common after cataracts and cornealAbstract
surgeries, especially in the hands of novice surgeons early in their training period. Prompt recognition and appropriate
management can prevent the decompensation of cornea timely. Descemetopexy is a popular method to reduce cornel edema
and improve patient prognosis. This article gives an insight into the procedure as well as the identification and management
of a descemet membrane detachment.
