Intrastromal Corneal Ring Segments Implantation and Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty for Coexisting Keratoconus and Fuchs Endothelial Dystrophy
Abstract:PURPOSE:
To report two cases of coexisting keratoconus and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy treated with intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) implantation and Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK).
METHODS:
Two patients with coexisting keratoconus and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy underwent ICRS implantation and DMEK, in a two-stage procedure. Follow-up evaluation included Scheimpflug tomography and optical coherence tomography.
