KeraRing intrastromal corneal ring segments for correction of keratoconus.
PURPOSE Intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRSs) are small arc-like implants that are being used increasingly as a minimally invasive treatment for patients with keratoconus. This study assessed the effectiveness of KeraRing implants, a type of ICRS, to treat keratoconus. METHODS Retrospective case series descriptive study of 43 patients (55 eyes) with keratoconus who underwent KeraRing imp...

متن کاملIntrastromal Corneal Ring Segment Implantation (Keraring 355°) in Patients with Central Keratoconus: 6-Month Follow-Up
We evaluate the efficacy and safety of Keraring 355° intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation aided by PocketMaker microkeratome for the correction of keratoconus. Patients underwent ICRS insertion using mechanical dissection with PocketMaker microkeratome and completed 6 months of follow-up. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA), refracti...
متن کاملLate onset of deep corneal vascularization: a rare complication of intrastromal corneal ring segments for keratoconus.
PURPOSE To report deep corneal vascularization noted 3 years after intrastromal corneal ringsegments (Intacs) implantation for the treatment of keratoconus. METHODS A 33-year-old male keratoconus patient intolerant to rigid gas permeable contact lens in the right eye underwent Intacs implantation. At 2 years postoperatively, slit-lamp examination of the right eye revealed superficial corneal ...
