Effect of disagreement between refractive, keratometric, and topographic determination of astigmatic axis on suture removal after penetrating keratoplasty.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Post-keratoplasty astigmatism can be managed by selective suture removal in the steep axis. Corneal topography, keratometry, and refraction are used to determine the steep axis for suture removal. However, often there is a disagreement between the topographically determined steep axis and sutures to be removed and that determined by keratometry and refraction. The purpose of thi...

متن کاملProposed classification for topographic patterns seen after penetrating keratoplasty.
AIMS To create a clinically useful classification for post-keratoplasty corneas based on corneal topography. METHODS A total of 360 topographic maps obtained with the TMS-1, from 95 eyes that had undergone penetrating keratoplasty (PKP), were reviewed independently by two examiners in a masked fashion, and were categorised according to a proposed classification scheme. RESULTS A high intero...
متن کامل2115 Refractive changes after penetrating keratoplasty in fuchs endothelial dystrophy
Purpose. The purpose of this study ws~s to evaluate We changes of the refractive error in the follow up after penetrating keratoplasty for Fuchs’ dystrophy. Methods. Between 1960 and 1991 16.2 keratoplasties with mechanical trephination and single running suture ware performed for Fuchs’ dystrophy consecutively. The suture was removed 20,4 f 7.5 months postoperatively. In 99 eyes a simultaneous...
متن کاملLong-term keratometric changes after penetrating keratoplasty for keratoconus and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy.
PURPOSE To compare long-term keratometric changes after penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for keratoconus and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 168 corneas after PK for keratoconus (85 eyes of 63 subjects) and Fuchs dystrophy (83 eyes of 60 subjects). Patients were examined after final suture removal at 12 months after PK to 30 years after surgery. Operations were p...
