Impact of corneal cross-linking combined with photorefractive keratectomy on blurring strength.
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of corneal cross-linking combined with photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) on blurring strength. METHODS A total of 63 patients with keratoconus were recruited for this study, and two study groups were formed according to the therapeutic intervention: corneal collagen cross-linking (CxL) group (33 patients) received corneal cross-linking ...
متن کامل5-year follow-up of combined non-topography guided photorefractive keratectomy and corneal collagen cross linking for keratoconus.
AIM To evaluate the visual outcomes of simultaneous non-topography guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in eyes with keratoconus 5y after the procedure. METHODS Prospective, interventional, non-randomized, and non-controlled case series design was used. Sixty eyes of 30 patients (16 males and 14 females; age: 21-41y) with mild, non-progressive (sta...
متن کاملSimultaneous Topography-Guided Photorefractive Keratectomy and Accelerated Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking for Keratoconus.
PURPOSE To study the evolution of visual and refractive outcomes through the first year after simultaneous topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (t-PRK) and corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in keratoconus. METHODS This retrospective case series included 85 eyes of 66 patients with a mean age of 26.3 ± 5.7 years, which underwent simultaneous t-PRK with accelerated CXL. Patients wer...
متن کاملNodular Epithelial Hyperplasia after Photorefractive Keratectomy Followed by Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking
This study describes a case of nodular epithelial hyperplasia and stromal alterations in a patient with keratoconus who was submitted to topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) followed by corneal collagen cross-linking. Debridement of the epithelial nodule was performed. After a 2-year followup, a new topography-guided PRK was indicated.

PURPOSE To present the long-term results after simultaneous photorefractive keratectomy followed by corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus. DESIGN Prospective, interventional, consecutive case series. METHODS In this study, 26 patients (31 eyes) with progressive keratoconus were included. All patients underwent customized topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy immediately fol...
