case_images: (a) Schiempflug image of the eye 1 day after cataract surgery complicated by Descemet's membrane (DM) detachment. Note the corneal thickening and hyper-reflectivity with an indistinct view of DM in the anterior chamber (arrowhead). (b) Pachymetric map: Massive thickening of the whole cornea with minimal thickness of 1342 mm.

case_images: Pachymetry revealed a central corneal thickness of 1344 mm [Figure 1].
case_images: (a) Slit lamp photograph of the same eye as in Figure 1, 2 days after cataract surgery. Note the corneal wrinkling and Descemet's membrane tear (arrowhead). (b) Pachymetric map: Corneal thickening with a minimal value of 950 mm.

case_images: Appearance of the same eye 4 days after cataract surgery. Slit lamp photographs: (a) Partial reattachment of Descemet's membrane (DM, red arrow), (b) DM Detachment (arrowhead), and loss of DM (asterisk). Scheimpflug image (c) of the same eye, note the detached DM flaps (arrow) and partial reattachment (red arrow).

case_images: Scheimpflug images showed partial reattachment of DM in some parts of the cornea [Figure 3].
case_images: Appearance of the same eye 5 weeks after air bubble injection: (a) Slit lamp photograph reveals a clear cornea except for some haziness in the corneal apex. (b) Scheimpflug image shows a fully attached Descemet's membrane; (c) pachymetric map: The thinnest point is 544 mm and mild thickening (642 mm) is present in the corneal apex.
