Prediction of Corneal Condition After Corneal Ring Implantation in Keratoconus Patients
Background: Keratoconus is a common complication among corneal defects. As a result of expeditious and extensive progress of medical science in recent decades, corneal ring implantation has turned into a successful surgical procedure to correct the vision of Keratoconus patients; however, selecting the right patient is essential in the success of the operation. The prediction of corneal conditi...
متن کاملForward scattering properties of corneal haze.
PURPOSE Corneal haze is a well-known pathology associated with decreased corneal transparency and increased ocular scattering. Clinically, haze is typically estimated as the amount of backscattered light observed in a slit lamp examination while the small angle forward scattering cannot be directly observed. It was the purpose of this study to demonstrate a single-pass technique to objectively ...
متن کاملCorneal Inlays for the Surgical Treatment
I t is a great pleasure to join John Vukich, MD, as a section editor of Advanced Ocular Care’s “Technology Watch” column. I look forward to sharing insights of experts from around the world into the innovations that will pave the way for the future of the eye care industry. Although much has been written on the topic, there is no universally accepted treatment for presbyopia. Therapies range fr...
متن کاملIn vivo biocompatibility of two PEG/PAA interpenetrating polymer networks as corneal inlays following deep stromal pocket implantation
This study compared the effects of implanting two interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) into rabbit corneas. The first (Implant 1) was based on PEG-diacrylate, the second (Implant 2) was based on PEG-diacrylamide. There were inserted into deep stromal pockets created using a manual surgical technique for either 3 or 6 months. The implanted corneas were compared with normal and sham-operated ...
متن کامل[Analysis of corneal curvature alteration following intrastromal corneal ring implantation: experimental study in rabbits].
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of intrastromal corneal ring implantation on corneal curvature in rabbits. METHODS Thirty eyes of 15 rabbits were divided into two groups: group 1 with 7 animals and group 2 with 8 animals. The left eye underwent surgery and the right eye was used as control. Ultrasound pachymetry and corneal topography were performed prior to surgery. Anterior segment biomicros...
