15 صفحه اولQuantitative OCT-based longitudinal evaluation of intracorneal ring segment implantation in keratoconus.
PURPOSE To characterize the geometrical properties of keratoconic corneas upon intracorneal ring segments (ICRS) implantation, using custom-developed optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS Ten keratoconic corneas were measured pre- and post-ICRS surgery (7, 30, and 90 days).
