Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty in the management of keratoconus

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Advanced cases of keratoconus often require surgical intervention to restore corneal anatomy and improve eyesight. Penetrating keratoplasty (PK) although commonly performed has potential risk of immunological rejection and is now no longer automatically ...

Corneal Biomechanics in Ectatic Diseases: Refractive Surgery Implications. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Ectasia development occurs due to a chronic corneal biomechanical decompensation or weakness, resulting in stromal thinning and corneal protrusion. This leads to corneal steepening, increase in astigmatism, and irregularity.

Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula successfully treated by combined open-endovascular procedure [PDF]

, 2010
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas constitute a rare though potentially devastating disease. Because the arterial (high-pressure) blood flow drains directly into the low-pressure venous system, there is a high risk of bleeding and associated ...

Progress of corneal collagen cross-linking combined with refractive surgery

International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
As a photochemical reaction that can stiffen the cornea, corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is the only promising method of preventing the progress of keratectasia, such as keratoconus and secondary ectasia following refractive surgery.
