Central corneal thickness ≥ 600 μm and ≤ 1,000 μm, OR Medical Monitor review and approval based on either:
Historical CCT increased by ≥ 50 μm OR
Findings of edema by corneal tomography or Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT).
Participant is considered a surgical candidate for full-thickness corneal transplantation or endothelial (partial thickness) keratoplasty (EK) consistent with standard-of-care indications. Key
