Outcomes of Single Segment Implantation of Conventional Intacs versus Intacs SK for Keratoconus
PURPOSE To compare the visual, refractive, and keratometric outcomes of single-segment conventional and severe keratoconus (SK) types of Intacs for correction of inferior keratoconus (KCN). METHODS A total number of 41 consecutive eyes of 23 patients with a diagnosis of inferior KCN underwent Intacs implantation. Eight eyes were excluded due to postoperative complications (4 eyes) and loss to...
متن کاملVisual, Keratometric and Corneal Biomechanical Changes after Intacs SK Implantation for Moderate to Severe Keratoconus
PURPOSE To report visual outcomes and corneal biomechanical changes after femtosecond-assisted Intacs SK implantation in keratoconic eyes. METHODS This prospective interventional case series is comprised of 32 keratoconic eyes of 25 patients with mean age of 23.8 ± 5.4 years. Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuity, refraction, manifest refraction spherical equivalent (...
متن کاملINTACS for keratoconus.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The use of Intacs as a therapeutic modality in contact lens intolerant patients with mild to moderate keratoconus is increasingly gaining acceptance in the ophthalmic community. RECENT FINDINGS During the past year we have gleaned significant new information about patients who are appropriate candidates, the location and relative placement of segment sizes and long-term safe...
متن کاملEffects of single-segment Intacs implantation on visual acuity and corneal topographic indices of keratoconus
PURPOSE To assess the changes in visual acuity and topographic indices after implantation of single-segment Intacs. METHODS Forty-two keratoconic eyes received Femtosecond-assisted single-segment Intacs. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA), refractive error, keratometry (K1, K2, Km, and KMax.), and seven Pentacam measured topographical ...
متن کاملManagement of keratoconus with Intacs.
PURPOSE To prospectively study the effects of the use of Intacs microthin prescription inserts for the management of keratoconus. DESIGN Prospective nonrandomized clinical trial. METHODS Thirty-three eyes of 26 keratoconus patients (17 males and 9 females) ages 21 to 51 years (mean age, 32 +/- 9.7 years) were included in the current study. All patients had clear central corneas and contact ...
