Purpose:

To evaluate visual rehabilitation after implanting Myoring (DIOPTEX GmBH, Linz, Austria) using a femtosecond-assisted procedure

Methods:

20 eyes of 12 patients with the diagnosis of keratoconus (eight bilateral and 4 unilateral) with the age ranges of 18 to 50 were included. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), keratometry, slit-lamp and topographic examinations were performed preoperatively. One surgeon following the same protocol inserted continuous ring. The pocket was created at a depth of300 micron by means of femtosecond technology and Myoring of 5 mm in diameter was implanted for all patients. It was inserted via a small- incision tunnel that required no suturing. Later adjustment of the ring position was possible.

Results:

A significant improvement in BCVA was observed after 1 weak (p<0.001) which was consistent with significant changes in cylinder (p<0.005).The mean preoperative BCVA was1/10 that improved to7/10 6 month after surgery. The maximum manifest cylinder was changed from 8 preoperatively to 2 in postoperative evaluation.

Conclusion:

Corneal intrastromal implantation surgery with Myoring is effective for regularizing corneal shape in keratoconus and produces improvement in BCVA and keratometry.
