2021 Survey of Keratoplasty Postoperative Steroid Management.

Prednisolone remains the predominantly used steroid across different keratoplasties. Steroid regimens are similar for non-high-risk penetrating keratoplasty, Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty, Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty, and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty. To treat graft rejection, surgeons tend to initially add a glaucoma medication than to reduce the potency or frequency of the steroid.
