Re: Watanabe et al.: Relationship between corneal guttae and quality of vision in patients with mild Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (Ophthalmology 2015;122:2103-9)
In their recent article, Watanabe et al1 explored relationships between corneal guttae and visual function in eyes with “mild” Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD).1 They concluded that guttae affect quality of vision (QOV), and that “early endothelial keratoplasty for patients with mild FECD without severe edema should be considered to remove corneal guttae that affect the QOV parameters.”
