SIGNIFICANCE: There is a lack of knowledge on myopic progression in patients with moderate to high astigmatism, which has been compounded by their exclusion from myopia control studies. This study found increased myopia that was linearly associated with age, emphasizing the importance of understanding myopia control treatments in this population ...

The study of keratoconus progression was once based upon slitlamp study, keratometry, and placido disk image examination. Today we have a lot of new corneal devices and indexes wich can help the ophthalmologist to make earlier the diagnosis and also to ...

Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty in the management of keratoconus
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 ...

Trans-epithelial accelerated corneal cross-linking for keratoconus in children [PDF]
The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of trans-epithelial accelerated corneal cross-linking (TE-ACXL) in children with progressive keratoconus. Retrospective, case-series of 23 eyes of 14 children who underwent TE-ACXL.

Epidermal Nevi and Epidermal Naevus Syndromes
ABSTRACT Epidermal nevi (EN) arise from postzygotic variants in ectoderm‐derived cell lines, such as keratinocytes and cells forming adnexa. EN may be present alone without any associated abnormality or be part of a syndrome. In this review, we will discuss about the clinical and genetics of the main types of EN and related syndromes.

Effect of Croslinking Treatment for Keratoconus in a Pediatric Population
Background: Keratoconus is a progressive condition that weakens the cornea and affects vision. Symptoms typically emerge in the second or third decade of life, though rare cases in young children occur. Early diagnosis is crucial to prevent vision deterioration.

Costello Syndrome and Ophthalmologic Issues: Unveiling the Unseen
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is an ultra‐rare condition belonging to the RASopathies, a group of disorders characterized by aberrant RAS/MAPK pathway signaling, which is involved in ocular development and in some eye pathologies. However, only a few studies assessing the ophthalmic features of individuals with CS are available.

Corneal Cross-Linking for Paediatric Keratoconus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
All corneal cross-linking techniques attenuated disease progression in patients with pediatric keratoconus for at least one year based on a meta-analysis. A standard and accelerated technique led to marked improvement in visual acuity.

The Role of Decorin in the Ocular Surface: Structure, Function, and Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT The ocular surface, comprising the cornea, conjunctiva, and sclera, relies on a complex extracellular matrix (ECM) for structural support and functional integrity. Decorin (DCN), a small leucine‐rich proteoglycan, a key ECM component involved in collagen fibrillogenesis, growth factor modulation, and cellular regulation, is essential for ...
