I don't know of any but if surgery is necessary be sure to see a cornea surgeon that is experienced with DSAEK surgery. It has revolutioned the surgical treatment of Fuch's Dystrophy. Search that term and google it (Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty). (some other acronyms are also used)
