OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical and diagnostic findings of a patient with acute hydrops using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).
METHODS
The AS-OCT findings of a 43-year-old patient with acute hydrops associated with keratoconus were examined. At the initial examination
Bilateral keratoconus was first observed at the age of 13 years in a boy born with Crouzon's syndrome. Corneal hydrops (acute keratoconus) occurred in one of the involved eyes at the age of 15 years. It does not seem that an occurrence of keratoconus in Crouzon's disease has been reported before.
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the clinical and microstructural changes during the course of acute corneal hydrops in keratoconus.
METHODS
A prospective study of consecutive patients presenting with acute corneal hydrops over 12 months was performed. Patients were examined with slit-lamp biomicroscopy and in
We present a 14-year-old boy with a history of advanced keratoconus in the left eye. Two 400 μm intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) (Intacs) were implanted on the 140-degree meridian at a depth of 400 μm in the left eye using the suction-guided manual dissection technique. While the temporal
OBJECTIVE
The aim was to report three cases of severe bilateral epithelial edema (central corneal clouding [CCC]) in association with ClearKone SynergEyes hybrid contact lenses for the vision rehabilitation of keratoconus.
METHODS
Retrospective case series of six eyes of three patients that
Purpose: To compare the clinical characteristics of acute hydrops between eyes with recurrent keratoconus and eyes with treatment-naïve keratoconus. Methods: Six eyes with acute hydrops caused by recurrent keratoconus (recurrent group) and 29 eyes with acute hydrops due to
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pneumodescemetopexy with intracameral perfluoroethane (C2F6) gas for the treatment of acute hydrops secondary to keratoconus.
METHODS
Retrospective, non-comparative, interventional case series. Eight eyes of eight patients who presented with acute
BACKGROUND
Keratoconus may progress to acute corneal hydrops even after cross-linking. In some cases, keratoconus progresses during pregnancy. In this report, we present a case of a patient with increased anterior stromal resistance after cross-linking that would favor nonprogression of keratoconus
OBJECTIVE
To report a young child with bilateral keratoconus in the context of vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) who developed bilateral corneal hydrops associated with eye rubbing, and to discuss the pathogenesis and review the pertinent literature.
METHODS
A seven-year-old girl with VKC and
Four patients with the congenital rubella syndrome had keratoconus and evidence of acute or previous corneal hydrops. All four of the patients vigorously rubbed and poked their eyes. The keratoconus and acute corneal hydrops in these patients probably resulted from chronic traumatizing mannerisms
OBJECTIVE
Vigorous eye rubbing is a cause of extensive hydrops in mentally retarded patients with keratoconus. We describe a new management approach for this condition.
METHODS
Prospective, noncomparative, consecutive case series.
METHODS
Ten eyes of 10 mentally retarded patients aged 18 to 37 years
OBJECTIVE
To report the use of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas in the management of corneal edema caused by acute corneal hydrops secondary to keratoconus.
METHODS
Nine eyes with acute hydrops secondary to keratoconus managed by SF6 gas injected into the anterior chamber (group 1) were compared to
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of unilateral corneal hydrops associated with vernal conjunctivitis as a presenting sign of keratoconus.
METHODS
Case report. A 10-year-old girl with corneal hydrops of the left eye.
RESULTS
Visual acuity in the affected eye was hand motions and slit-lamp examination
The corneas of three patients with keratoconus were examined by light and electron microscopy within approximately four months after onset of severe hydrops. The rupture and detachment of Descemet's membrane resulted in formation of extensive ledges. New endothelium completely resurfaced the exposed
BACKGROUND
Corneal perforation is an uncommon complication associated with keratoconus. The first cases of infectious keratitis and corneal perforation associated with corneal hydrops and contact lens wear are reported in two keratoconus patients.
METHODS
A retrospective chart review and
