Confocal biomicroscopic changes of the corneal layers following femtosecond laser-assisted MyoRing implantation in keratoconus
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of the femtosecond laser-assisted MyoRing implantation on the confocal biomicroscopic findings in different corneal layers of the patients with keratoconus. METHODS Twelve eyes of 12 patients with mild to moderate keratoconus (keratometry between 48 and 52 diopters) and intolerance to hard contact lens entered the study. All the included patients underwent femto...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Astigmatism after MyoRing Implantation
Considering the rising number of MyoRing implantation procedures in keratoconic corneas and the refractive outcomes associated with this treatment modality, this study aimed to evaluate and compare the magnitude and axis orientation of total and corneal astigmatism between before and after MyoRing implantation in 34 eyes of 28 patients with keratoconus (KCN) (mean age: 29.41 ± 7.0 years). The i...
متن کاملCombined collagen crosslinking treatments for keratoconus.
The landscape of keratoconus treatment has changed profoundly since the introduction of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL). A decade ago, a newly diagnosed keratoconus patient could expect a treatment plan that involved gradual escalation from spectacle correction to contact lens wear, perhaps followed by an attempt to improve contact lens tolerance or spectacle acuity with intrastromal cornea...
متن کاملPrediction 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 کاملEffect of treatment sequence in combined intrastromal corneal rings and corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus.
PURPOSE To compare 2 sequences of combined intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation and ultraviolet/riboflavin-mediated corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) in progressive keratoconus. SETTING Dunya Eye Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey. METHODS In this prospective comparative randomized consecutive study, CXL was followed by ICRS implantation (Group 1) or ICRS implantation was followe...
