Abstract
A 63 year old elderly lady was referred after her small incision cataract surgery was abandoned suspecting a complete Descemet’s membrane detachment while entering into the anterior chamber. Due to poor visibility, the patient referred for a combined procedure of cataract extraction and IOL implantation along with endothelial keratoplasty. The case was taken to surgery and successfully completed using trypan blue staining and external light source to aid in better visualization. DM was reattached and patient regained good vision postoperatively.
