متن کاملKeraRing intrastromal corneal ring segments for correction of keratoconus.
PURPOSE Intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRSs) are small arc-like implants that are being used increasingly as a minimally invasive treatment for patients with keratoconus. This study assessed the effectiveness of KeraRing implants, a type of ICRS, to treat keratoconus. METHODS Retrospective case series descriptive study of 43 patients (55 eyes) with keratoconus who underwent KeraRing imp...

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 کامل[Asymmetric intrastromal corneal ring for the treatment of keratoconus].
PURPOSE To analyze corneal curvature and visual acuity after asymmetric intrastromal corneal rings implantation, not following the nomogram proposed by the manufacturer. METHODS Seven eyes of seven keratoconus patients which had asymmetric corneal rings implanted in their corneal stroma were studied. RESULTS A flattening of the average corneal keratometry was noted in all patients, as well ...
