Comparison of Combined Transepithelial Phototherapeutic Keratectomy and Mechanical Debridement During Corneal Cross-linking.
Comparison of Combined Transepithelial Phototherapeutic Keratectomy and Mechanical Debridement During Corneal Cross-linking We read with great interest the study by Gaster et al. in the October 2016 issue regarding the comparison of the effect of epithelial removal by transepithelial phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) or manual debridement on corneal cross-linking (CXL) for progressive keratoco...
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...
متن کاملCorneal thickness changes after corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus and corneal ectasia: one-year results.
PURPOSE To determine the changes in corneal thickness over time after corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) for keratoconus and corneal ectasia. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery subspecialty practice. DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS Corneal thickness at the apex, thinnest point, and pupil center were measured using Scheimpflug imaging (Pentacam) at base...
متن کاملCorneal topography indices after corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus and corneal ectasia: one-year results.
PURPOSE To evaluate changes in corneal topography indices after corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) in patients with keratoconus and corneal ectasia and analyze associations of these changes with visual acuity. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery subspecialty practice. DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS Corneal collagen crosslinking was performed in eyes wi...
متن کاملCorneal ectasia after photorefractive keratectomy.
Two patients developed corneal ectasia after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Case 1 had evidence of early keratoconus preoperatively, with manifest refractions of -4.00 +2.50 x 160 (20/20) in the right eye and -7.00 +3.00 x 180 (20/30) in the left eye; thin corneas (472 microm and 441 microm, respectively); and inferior paracentral steepening in the right eye and central steepening in the le...
