Dr Ramaesh favours DALK. He did a PK in my right eye because it was too wasted for DALK.

The advantage of starting to do a DALK is that he can easily change to performing a PK in mid operation, if circumstances require the change.

All the best

Magic,

I was technically blind in my left eye as well and so went for a graft. I had a DALK which i was hoping for but you do get told that it may need to change to a full graft in surgery,

Hoping that you get a date soon!!

Thanks folks. Kind of don't know what to expect but I am happy I'm getting it done.
Don't let your fears stand in the way of your dreams
