Visual rehabilitation in moderate keratoconus: combined corneal wavefront-guided transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy and high-fluence accelerated corneal collagen cross-linking after intracorneal ring segment implantation
BACKGROUND To investigate the effects of combined corneal wavefront-guided transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (tPRK) and accelerated corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) after intracorneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation in patients with moderate keratoconus. METHODS Medical records of 23 eyes of 23 patients undergoing combined tPRK and CXL after ICRS implantation were retrospective...
متن کاملTreatment of visual problems after intracorneal ring implantation
PURPOSE To report the effect of wavefront-guided photorefractive keratectomy and corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) on visual problems after Ferrara ring segment placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 32-year-old male patient was treated with a Ferrara ring segment for keratoconus. One year later, the ring was removed due to severe glare complaints. After 6 months, wavefront-guided photorefract...
متن کاملActual Indications for Intracorneal Ring Segment Implantation in Keratoconus
Intracorneal ring segments (ICRS) are small synthetic implements designed to achieve refractive adjustment by flattening the cornea. Three common types of commercially available ICRS are Intacs, Keraring and Ferrara rings. Low myopia was the initial indication for implantation of ICRS, and indications later included ectatic corneal diseases (such as keratoconus and pellucid marginal degeneratio...
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 کاملCorneal-Wavefront guided transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy after corneal collagen cross linking in keratoconus
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Corneal-Wavefront guided transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) after corneal collagen cross linking (CXL) in keratoconic patients. METHODS In this retrospective, non-comparative, consecutive case series, 39 keratoconic eyes underwent Corneal-Wavefront guided TransPRK for the correction of aberrations at least 4 months after conve...
