Immediate postoperative Pentacam corneal tomography revealing inferior‐temporal decentration of the biologic corneal inlay on the axial curvature map. ABSTRACT Biologic corneal inlays can rarely present with immediate postoperative decentration, which can be subtle and difficult to detect clinically. Real‐time tomography allows precise early diagnosis,

ABSTRACT Myopia is a rapidly growing global health challenge, affecting 1.9 billion people and projected to reach 4.9 billion by 2050, with high myopia and its sight‐threatening complications such as maculopathy, retinal detachment, and glaucoma increasing disproportionately.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Infectious keratitis (IK) is classified as a critical ophthalmic emergency, with the potential to result in vision‐impairing complications. The treatment approach involves the use of pharmacological antimicrobial agents in combination with surgical interventions.

SUMMARY We described a 47-year-old man with a noninflammatory bilateral corneal ectasia. Superior thinning was present between 11 and 2 hours, with a localized steep area coincident to the thinning. An edge of apparently non-affected cornea was observed adjacent to the limbus. No deposits, stress lines or deep neovascularization was observed. This case

Our study demonstrates that UV cross‐linking (CXL) reduces outflow facility while increasing corneal elasticity across IOP levels of 20–40 mmHg, measured using direct manometry and non‐contact optical coherence elastography. These results highlight both parameters as potential indicators for evaluating CXL effectiveness and monitoring keratoconus ...

Intra-Stromal Corneal Ring Segments
Intra-stromal corneal ring segments (ICRs) are a new modality in the treatment of corneal ectactic disorders like keratoconus, post lasik ectasia and pellucid marginal degeneration.

Biomechanics of corneal ectasia and biomechanical treatments [PDF]
Many algorithms exist for the topographic/tomographic detection of corneas at risk for post-refractive surgery ectasia. It is proposed that the reason for the difficulty in finding a universal screening tool based on corneal morphologic features is that curvature, elevation, and pachymetric changes are all secondary signs of keratoconus and post ...
