Purpose:
|
To compare combined MyoRing implantation with previously corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL- MyoRing) versus MyoRing implantation alone in patients with keratoconus.
|
|
Methods:
|
This retrospective comparative study included 33 eyes of 33 patients with keratoconus stage II and III according to Amsler-Krumeich classification. Two groups were performed for this study with 1 year follow up. The group 1 received MyoRing implantation and the group 2 received CXL approximately 11months before MyoRing implantation. All patients had a complete pre and post-operative examination including visual, refractive and keratometry examinations.
|
|
Results:
|
There was not observed a statistically significant difference between mean UDVA of two groups postoperatively (p = 0.142) whereas the mean CDVA in Group 2 was significantly better than mean Group 1(p = 0.018). SE and refractive astigmatism were significantly reduced in both groups.The mean keratometric values also were reduced in both groups at the end of follow up.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
Both combined CXL- MyoRing and MyoRing implantation alone were effective treatment for moderate and severe keratoconus and resulted in similar clinical outcomes after one year follow up.Overally MyoRing implantation alone demonstrated better outcome in mean CDVA.
