title: Double Descemet's membrane in penetrating keratoplasty.
abstract: A rare complication of penetrating keratoplasty is incomplete removal of the host Descemet's membrane, which can progressively become opaque. Utilizing a Nd:YAG laser, we opened the opaque membrane, improving visual acuity from 20/400 to 20/100.
