“…Although various new therapies have been developed [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40], contact lenses remain the most effective means for achieving good vision in such eyes. If the keratoconic cornea becomes too scarred or too steep to tolerate a contact lens, corneal transplantation is indicated.…”

“…The results obtained have shown the absence of toxicity in experimental material samples and their low adhesive properties with respect to the stromal cell culture, thereby confirming its potential suitability for intracorneal implantation. так и за рубежом [10][11][12][13]. Примечательным явля ется успешное использование данного материала в виде интрастромальных роговичных сегментов, которые обычно имплантируются в относительно толстую периферическую часть роговицы [14].…”

“…(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) Tradicionalmente, a cirurgia é indicada para adiar ou mesmo evitar o transplante de córnea em casos em que a reabilitação visual não é possível com métodos tradicionais (óculos e lentes de contato [LC]). (2,7,12,13,19,20) Entretanto, existe uma tendência para indicações mais precoces e de forma eletiva (ex. casos ainda com boa acuidade visual com LC), (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18) havendo uma exigência crescente para maior previsibilidade e segurança para estes procedimentos.…”

“…Os nomogramas classicamente levam em consideração o aspecto topográfico (curvatura axial) da ectasia, a espessura da córnea e o estado refracional do paciente. (7,13,19) Figura 1: Padrão de distribuição da ectasia no mapa de curvatura (axial ou sagital) da topografia o padrão topográfico da ectasia no mapa de curvatura axial ou sagital e o astigmatismo. O implante de um ou dois segmentos e a distribuição das espessuras destes foi definida com base na distribuição ceratométrica da ectasia, dividindo-se a córnea em metades (Figura 1).…”
