Purpose:
|
To identify preoperative factors that influence the success in Myoring implantation in Keratoconic patients
|
|
Methods:
|
In a case series ,medical records of 87 eyes of 87 patients who underwent MyoRing intra-corneal implants using the PocketMaker Microkeratome due to keratoconus between April 2012- March 2013 were retrospectively analayzed using SPSS version 16 for Windows for variables before implantation and visual outcome after Myoring implantation. Variables included age,gender, uncorrected visual acuity( UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent(SE) , central corneal thickness(CCT) and keratometry readingThe eyes were graded after the last follow-up based on uncorrected visual acuity difference (UCVAd); difference of pre-op UCVA and post-op UCVA to worst ,moderate and best subgroups.
|
|
Results:
|
The mean value of uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) , best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and spherical equivalence(SE) improved significantly ,while the mean value of central corneal thickness (CCT) and keratometry reading were significantly reduced postoperatively.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
according to the new grading system for Myoring implantation success, preoperative UCVA is considered the most important indicator for surgical success in MyoRing treatment of Keratoconus
