Purpose:
|
To report the outcomes of implantation of a Kerraring 355° intrastromal corneal ring
segment (ICRS) using Ziemer FEMTO LDV to manage keratoconus.
|
Methods:
|
Tunnel formation and implementation of in a 28 year old female using Ziemer FEMTO LDV to manage keratoconus was performed. To our knowledge this is the first report of Keraring 355° implantation using femtosecond laser to create a 360° corneal tunnel.
|
Results:
|
The operation was performed without complications and the patient’s UCVA improved from FC: 1 M before operation to 1/10 six months postoperatively and his BCVA improved from 1/10 before operation to 3/10 postoperatively. Pre-operation orbscan examination findings were MaxK.2= 58.4×98 and Min K.2= 54.3×8 witch improved to Max K.2=54.2×134 and Min K.2=48.1×44 six months postoperatively.
|
Conclusion:
|
We successfully utilized the femtosecond to create a 360° corneal tunnel and implant a Keraring 355° for the first time with good postoperative results. Further investigation on utilization of this method in place of mechanical means of pocket formation is recommended.
