BACKGROUND: Though the development and fitting of scleral contact lenses are expanding steadily, there is no simple method to provide scleral metrics for scleral contact lens fitting yet. The aim of this study was to establish formulae for estimation of the axial radius of curvature (ARC) of the anterior sclera using ocular biometric parameters that can be easily obtained with conventional de...

TITLE: Analysis of bleb morphology after trabeculectomy with anterior segment optical coherence tomography. PURPOSE: To describe the use of Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS OCT ) in imaging of trabeculectomy bleb to find out the morphology and internal structure, and correlate its internal characteristics with the function of the bleb. METHODS: Observational case-series study.6...

Collagen cross-linking (CXL) is being offered to a growing number of keratoconic patients worldwide for prevention of disease progression, with an overall success rate that exceeds 90% of the treated eyes.1,2 However, some patients do continue to progress after CXL and may need to undergo keratoplasty. Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) has become the preferred technique by an increasin...
