Comparison of Placido disc and Scheimpflug image-derived topography-guided excimer laser surface normalization combined with higher fluence CXL: the Athens Protocol, in progressive keratoconus
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of two alternative corneal topography data sources used in topography-guided excimer laser normalization, combined with corneal collagen cross-linking in the management of keratoconus using the Athens protocol, ie, a Placido disc imaging device and a Scheimpflug imaging device. METHODS A total of 181 consecutive patie...
متن کاملIntracorneal ring segments implantation followed by same-day topography-guided PRK and corneal collagen CXL in low to moderate keratoconus.
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) implantation followed by same-day topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and ultraviolet-A/riboflavin collagen cross-linking (CXL) in patients with low to moderate keratoconus. METHODS Patients with low to moderate keratoconus and contact lens intolerance were included in the study. All patie...
متن کاملManagement of corneal ectasia after LASIK with combined, same-day, topography-guided partial transepithelial PRK and collagen cross-linking: the athens protocol.
PURPOSE To evaluate a series of patients with corneal ectasia after LASIK that underwent the Athens Protocol: combined topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) to reduce or eliminate induced myopia and astigmatism followed by sequential, same-day ultraviolet A (UVA) corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL). METHODS Thirty-two consecutive corneal ectasia cases underwent transepithelial ...
متن کاملClinical results of topography-based customized ablations in highly aberrated eyes and keratoconus/ectasia with cross-linking.
PURPOSE To report results of a series of highly aberrated corneas treated with a topography-guided excimer laser ablation. METHODS Retrospective, nonrandomized, consecutive series of eyes treated with topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (TG-PRK) with the customized topographical neutralization technique (TNT). Cases included postoperative refractive surgery decentered ablations, opt...
متن کاملSecondary ectasia due to forceps injury at childbirth: management with combined topography-guided partial PRK and collagen cross-linking (Athens Protocol) and subsequent phakic IOL implantation.
To the Editor: A 23-year-old man, previously diagnosed with “progressive keratoconus” in his left eye, presented with uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) of 20/20 in the right eye and counting fi ngers in the left eye, with 20/100 pinhole refraction. Refraction in the left eye was 9.50 5.00 155° with corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) of 20/100. Keratometry was 43.00/43.50 @ 95° and ...
