Keratoconus is a degenerative eye condition which results from thinning of the cornea and causes vision distortion. Treatments such as ultraviolet (UV) cross-linking have proved effective for management of keratoconus when performed in early stages of the disease. The central corneal thickness (CCT) is a highly heritable endophenotype of keratoconus, and it is estimated that up to 95% of its ph...
Background: In this study were focused on corneal cells changes in keratoconus disease, as there are differences between results of other studies that were done on keratokonic eyes. And the chief purpose was a comparison between keratoconus and normal population based corneal endothelium (in cell density, pleomorphism and polymegethism of cells). Methods: This study is an observational study a...
Purpose To compare the corneal clarity measurement between penetrating keratoplasty (PK) and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) in patients with keratoconus, using densitometry software for the Oculus Pentacam. Methods A retrospective comparative study was carried out at Manchester Royal Eye Hospital. Data were collected 12-18 months after corneal transplantation for keratoconus, incl...
PURPOSE Keratoconus and cataract are common causes of visual morbidity. Both conditions show genetic predisposition. The purpose of this study was to map the disease locus in a large three-generation family affected by combined early-onset autosomal dominant anterior polar cataract and clinically severe keratoconus. Uniquely, in this family both disorders were present and fully penetrant in tho...
PURPOSE To assess the outcome of Ferrara intracorneal ring segments for keratoconus. SETTING Private practice and university hospital, Porto Alegre, Brazil. METHODS In this retrospective noncomparative interventional case series, 51 keratoconus eyes of 47 patients that had Ferrara intracorneal ring segment implantation were reviewed. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best spectacle-correcte...
Purpose. To evaluate the relationship of corneal biomechanical properties to refraction and corneal aberrometry in keratoconic eyes. Methods. A total of 81 consecutive keratoconic eyes of 81 patients ranging in age from 11 to 58 years were included in the study. Three groups were differentiated according to the severity of keratoconus: mild (37 eyes), moderate (24 eyes), and severe (20 eyes). V...
PURPOSE To estimate cure rate following graft rejection in bilateral corneal transplants in Iranian patients with keratoconus and to determine risk factors associated with rejection. METHODS In this retrospective study, data were compiled from records of patients who had undergone bilateral penetrating keratoplasty (PK) for keratoconus between 1988 and 2007. In order to estimate cure rate in ...
PURPOSE To determine the repeatability and reproducibility of central and peripheral corneal pachymetry mapping with anterior segment-optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). METHODS An observational cross-sectional study involving two groups: 27 healthy eyes and 20 eyes with keratoconus. Each subject underwent scanning sessions with AS-OCT to determine intraobserver repeatability, interobserve...
Purpose. To evaluate the difference in biomechanical properties between contact lens induced corneal warpage and normal and keratoconic eyes. Method. Prospective observational case control study, where 94 eyes of 47 warpage suspicious and 46 eyes of 23 keratoconic patients were included. Warpage suspected cases were followed until a definite diagnosis was made (warpage, normal, or keratoconus)....
purpose: to evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes of automated lamellar therapeutic keratoplasty (altk) in patients with keratoconus. methods: in this prospective noncomparative clinical trial, altk was performed in 14 eyes of 14 patients with moderate to severe keratoconus. all patients were spectacle and contact lens intolerant. uncorrected visual acuity (ucva), best corrected visual a...
