Intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation by femtosecond laser for keratoconus correction.
PURPOSE To report the outcomes after the implantation of intrastromal corneal ring segments (KERARING) aided by femtosecond laser for the correction of keratoconus. DESIGN Prospective consecutive interventional study. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-one eyes of 16 consecutive keratoconic patients with mean age 32+/-10.2 years. Forty-five percent were keratoconus grade I, 20% grade II, 15% grade III, an...

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 کاملComplications of Intra Corneal Ring Segment Implantation with Femtosecond Laser Channel Creation in patients with Keratoconus (Explanations and Solutions)
The present study analyzes the complications of intracorneal ring segment implantation using a femtosecond laser for channel creation in patients with keratoconus. This technique, as in all surgical procedures, a risk of complications is always present and must be addressed appropriately to ensure that optimal results are achieved with the least possible incidence of adverse effects. We fully d...
