Long-term results of corneal wedge resections for the correction of high astigmatism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We retrospectively evaluated 41 corneal wedge resections, performed for the correction of high astigmatism in 40 patients who were spectacle and contact lens intolerant. Keratometric astigmatism decreased from an average of 11.7 diopters (range 5 to 22.5

Regional variations in corneal oedema during open‐eye fenestrated scleral lens wear

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 618-626, May 2025.
Abstract Purpose To compare the magnitude of central, mid‐peripheral and peripheral stromal corneal oedema induced during short‐term fenestrated and non‐fenestrated scleral lens wear. Methods Nine healthy participants wore a non‐fenestrated and a fenestrated (0.3‐mm diameter limbal fenestration) scleral lens (KATT™, Capricornia Contact Lenses ...

Theranostic‐Guided UV‐A Light Corneal Wavefront Photo‐Reshaping for Presbyopia Correction: A Preclinical Study

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2025.
This study investigated a theranostic‐guided UV‐A light corneal wavefront photo‐reshaping technique in human eyes using an integrated system for spatially patterned delivery of riboflavin. Results showed consistent corneal steepening, reduced spherical aberration, and smooth wavefront shaping, with unchanged optical quality, suggesting potential ...

Individual Risk Assessment and Prognostication of Outcomes After Corneal Cross‐Linking

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background and Objective: Corneal collagen cross‐linking (CXL) is a treatment which arrests keratoconus (KC) progression, but its effectiveness differs radically among patients. Herein, we report preoperative diagnostic findings that reflect CXL outcomes and allow physicians to prognosticate treatment efficiency.

Corneal Epithelial Thickness Mapping: A Major Review

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The corneal epithelium (CE) is the outermost layer of the cornea with constant turnover, relative stability, remarkable plasticity, and compensatory properties to mask alterations in the underlying stroma. The advent of quantitative imaging modalities capable of producing epithelial thickness mapping (ETM) has made it possible to characterize better ...

Encouraging Result of Voriconazole Treatment for Cladosporium Corneal Keratitis

open access: yesVision Pan-America, 2013
A 45-year-old man submitted to radial keratotomy 19 years ago acquired Cladosporium sp. infection in one of the incisions of the left eye. The infection was resistant to topical amphotericin B, topical natamycin and systemic fluconazole.
