Intacs for early pellucid marginal degeneration.
A 42-year-old man had Intacs (Addition Technology Inc.) implantation for early pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD). Two Intacs segments (0.45 mm thickness) were inserted uneventfully in the fashion typically used for low myopia correction (nasal-temporal). Eleven months after the procedure, the uncorrected visual acuity was 20/200, compared with counting fingers preoperatively, while the best ...
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 کاملCataract Extraction and Toric Intraocular Lens Implantation for the Management of Pellucid Marginal Degeneration and Cataract
We report cataract surgery with toric intraocular lens implantation for the management of senile cataract combined with pellucid marginal degeneration. A 72-year-old man with bilateral senile cataract and significant against-the-rule astigmatism sought counseling for blurry vision and glare, mostly in the right eye. Based on ophthalmic examination and corneal topography, a diagnosis of pellucid...
متن کاملDosimetric evaluation of a treatment planning system using pencil beam convolution algorithm for enhanced dynamic wedges with symmetric and asymmetric fields
Background: The dosimetric performance of Eclipse 6.5 three dimensional treatment planning system (3DTPS) is evaluated by comparing the calculated and measured dose in two dimensions following the guide lines of American Association for Physicists in Medicine Task Group 53. Materials and Methods: The calculations were performed by the 3DTPS for symmetric as well as asymmetric fields for standar...
متن کاملFull-Ring Intracorneal Implantation in Corneas With Pellucid Marginal Degeneration
BACKGROUND Keratoconus (KCN) is a progressive, non-inflammatory ectacic disorder characterized by bilateral and asymmetrical conical protrusion of the cornea. MyoRing implantation and Collagen Crosslink (CXL) are two separate effective treatments for all stages of keratoconous. This study wants to show the effect of these treatments combination in patients with moderate and severe keratoconus. ...
