Scleral lens tolerance after corneal cross-linking for keratoconus.

PURPOSE Subjective and objective evaluation of scleral lens tolerance and fitting before and after corneal cross-linking (CXL) for progressive keratoconus. METHODS In this prospective cohort, evaluations were made of 18 unilateral eyes in patients who underwent CXL and had been wearing scleral lenses before the procedure. All the patients gave informed consent; they were able to cooperate wit...

Bleb Revision using Reversed Scleral Flap and Pedical Conjunctival Graft

Bleb revision for hypotony maculopathy following trabeculectomy is an effective technique for raising intraocular pressure and limiting visual loss. The presence for scleral fistula causing over-filtration obviates the need for reinforcing materials, such as donor sclera or pericardium to cover the defect. However, if the surrounding scleral tissue is healthy, a partial thickness scleral flap c...

Traumatic scleral wound dehiscence with filtering bleb formation after surgical repair of penetrating globe injury.

UNLABELLED BACKGROPUND: Filtering bleb formation after surgical repair of penetrating globe injury is a rare occurrence. CASE A 45-year-old male who had undergone surgical repair of a corneoscleral laceration 16 months earlier presented to emergency room after blunt trauma to the left eye. His best-corrected visual acuities were 20/20 in the right eye and 20/25 in the left. An anterior segmen...

Correlation of Serial Scleral and Corneal Pneumatonometry.

PURPOSE To evaluate the usefulness of scleral pneumatonometry as an alternative for corneal measurements of intraocular pressure (IOP) over a broad range of IOPs. DESIGN Prospective, observational cohort study. PARTICIPANTS The study was conducted in the University of California, San Francisco, Retina Clinic between August and November 2013 in 33 adult patients (age range, 34-94 years; mean...
