Keratoconus - A Refractive Surgery

Visual and Refractive Results of Cataract Surgery by Phacoemulsification Method in Patients with Keratoconus

Purpose: To examine the visual and refractive results of cataract surgery by phacoemulsification method in patients with keratoconus. Methods: In this retrospective study, the files of patients with keratoconus, who underwent phacoemulsification between 2008 and 2017, were evaluated. The intraocular lens power calculation formula was SRK/T. Post-operative visual and refractive results were anal...

graft refractive surgery for post-dalk atigmatism in keratoconus

purpose: evaluate the effect of relaxing incision and adjustment sutures to correct astigmatism after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (dalk) in patients with keratoconus. materials and methods: this interventional case series included keratoconic eyes undergoing graft refractive surgery (grs) for intolerable post-dalk astigmatism. the technique of graft refractive surgery for the 5 initial ...

Refractive lens surgery.

This article compares methods of axial length measurement for determining intraocular lens power and describes bimanual micro incision phacoemulsification for refractive lens exchange and routine cataract surgery, which offers an enormous advantage of maintaining a more stable intraocular environment during lens removal. This advantage may be especially important in high myopes who are at a gre...
