Outcomes of two different treatment modalities in mild to moderate keratoconus
PURPOSE: To describe visual and refractive outcomes of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) and toric implantable collamer lenses (TICL) implantation in cases of mild and moderate keratoconus. METHODS: A prospective descriptive interventional case series. 40 eyes were allocated into two groups....

description | PURPOSE: To describe visual and refractive outcomes of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) and toric implantable collamer lenses (TICL) implantation in cases of mild and moderate keratoconus. METHODS: A prospective descriptive interventional case series. 40 eyes were allocated into two groups. First group (20 eyes) was treated with corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) 1 month after ICRS implantation and the second group was treated using TICL after 1 year of CXL. RESULTS: Both groups showed statistically significant improvement in spherical equivalent, cylindrical refraction, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) over the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: Both ICRS and TICL are effective in treatment of mid and moderate keratoconus with more predictable visual results with TICL. |
