lens densitometry changes after corneal collagen cross-linking in patients with keratoconus using pentacam scheimpflug camera
purpose: to evaluate densitometry of crystalline lens after cxl procedure in keratoconic patients. methods: in a quasi-experimental study three-dimensional lens densitometry was performed by pentacam scheimpflug camera at base line and 6 months later. subject group contained patients with diagnosed progressive keratoconus who underwent cxl surgery (n = 40). control group contained aged-matched ...
متن کاملLens Densitometry after Corneal Cross-linking in Patients with Keratoconus Using a Scheimpflug Camera
PURPOSE To evaluate changes in crystalline lens densitometry following corneal cross-linking (CXL) in keratoconic patients. METHODS In a quasi-experimental study, three-dimensional lens densitometry was performed using the Pentacam Scheimpflug camera (Oculus Optikgerate GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) at baseline and six months after CXL. Densitometry was performed in a fixed area of 2 inch × 1 inch ...
متن کاملContact Lens Visual Rehabilitation in Keratoconus and Corneal Keratoplasty
Keratoconus is the most common corneal distrophy. It's a noninflammatory progressive thinning process that leads to conical ectasia of the cornea, causing high myopia and astigmatism. Many treatment choices include spectacle correction and contact lens wear, collagen cross linking, intracorneal ring segments implantation and finally keratoplasty. Contact lenses are commonly used to reduce astig...
