DSAEK is a new form of corneal transplantation where only the back part of the cornea is transplanted, resulting in a stronger eye and more rapid recovery in vision. Dr Males is currently performing a prospective clinical trial for treatment of keratoconus with a new treatment known as Collagen Cross Linking. Dr Males is also performing in corneal intra stromal rings (both INTACS and Kerarings) for the treatment of keratoconus, as well as corneal all forms of corneal transplantation.
