The known techniques for DMEK tissue acquiring, are manual peeling or stripping. This Blister technique has come to revolutionize the way we prepare tissue, converting the whole procedure with new injectors available, into a truly NO-TOUCH technique. Thus reducing learning curve to actual transplant procedure, injecting and unfolding the tissue. This technique developed by a US cornea bank, shared in conferences shown from senior cornea fellow narrow experience.
