case_images: The anterior segment examination demonstrated a central corneal epithelial defect with marked corneal stromal edema and descemet folds (Figure 1A). Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) demonstrated profound corneal stromal edema with descemet folds and a thickness of 999 microm (Figure 1B).
case_images: (A) Slit lamp photo of anterior segment at 6 months showing clear cornea and (B) AS-OCT at 6 months demonstrates decreased corneal thickness.

case_images: Six months later, the previously noted corneal edema has resolved (Figure 2A and B), repeated specular microscopy revealed a decreased central endothelial cell count of 1611/mm2 (Table 1). and the visual acuity has recovered to 20/30.
case_images: Specular microscopy of the right eye demonstrates normal corneal endothelial cell count.
