Intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation for ectasia after refractive surgery.
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical outcomes of intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation to correct ectasia in eyes with prior refractive surgery. METHODS Forty-one eyes of 25 patients (13 men, 12 women; mean age, 28.66 years) with ectasia after refractive surgery [photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) or laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)] were included in a nonrandomized, retrospect...
متن کاملIntrastromal corneal ring segment implantation for the treatment of keratoconus.
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation using both mechanical and femtosecond-assisted tunnel creation for the treatment of patients with keratoconus. METHODS A retrospective noncomparative interventional study including 96 eyes of 75 patients with keratoconus. All patients had contact lens intolerance and clear central corneas. Corneal tu...
متن کاملLimbal epithelial crypt: a model for corneal epithelial maintenance and novel limbal regional variations.
OBJECTIVE To determine the distribution of cell membrane proteins and extracellular matrix proteins around the limbal epithelial crypt (LEC) compared with adjacent limbus and corneal epithelium. METHODS Serial histological sections of human corneoscleral limbus rims were stained with antibodies of interest by standard immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Superficial cells of the limbus were desmog...
متن کاملSimultaneous intratunnel cross-linking with intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation versus simultaneous epithelium-off cross-linking with intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation for keratoconus management
Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of intratunnel cross-linking combined with intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation versus combined epithelium-off (epi-off) cross-linking and ICRS implantation for the management of keratoconus. Methods Our study included 20 eyes of 12 patients with moderate-to-severe keratoconus. Group A included 10 eyes that underwen...
متن کاملCorneal Asphericity Changes after Implantation of Intrastromal Corneal Ring Segments in Keratoconus
Keratoconus is a progressive corneal thinning of unknown cause in which the cornea assumes a conical shape, with progressive irregular astigmatism and deterioration of visual acuity. The normal anterior corneal surface is prolate, and it could be described as conic (flattening of the radius of curvature from the apex toward the periphery)1. In keratoconus corneas, the steepening of the central ...
