Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To evaluate the clinical outcomes of intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implantation to correct keratoconus on eyes with prior refractive surgery.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: INTRASTROMAL CORNEAL RING SEGMENT

Detailed Description

Forty-two eyes of 26 patients, 14 men and 12 women, with ectasia after refractive surgery were studied in a nonrandomized, retrospective, observational case series. Mean age at the time of ICRS implantation was 30,5 years.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
INTRASTROMAL CORNEAL RING SEGMENT

Forty-two eyes of 26 patients, 14 men and 12 women, with ectasia after refractive surgery were studied in a nonrandomized, retrospective, observational case series.

Procedure: INTRASTROMAL CORNEAL RING SEGMENT
Corneal tunnels were created by means of mechanical dissection in all eyes. Main outcome measures included UCVA, BCVA, refraction, keratometry and computerized analysis of corneal topography.

Outcome Measures
