Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have a diagnosis of corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction, requiring surgery (full- or partial-thickness endothelial keratoplasty)
  • BCVA no worse than 5 ETDRS letters (i.e., 1.6 LogMAR or approximate 20/800 Snellen equivalent).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have pre-operative corneal epithelial, sub-epithelial or stromal scarring or other opacity that is paracentral/central and visually significant, but not suspected to be secondary to corneal endothelial disease with the potential to improve from treatment in the study eye
  • Have history or presence of an ocular disease other than corneal endothelial dysfunction that could affect vision or safety assessments
