Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Everting Sutures with a Lateral Tarsal Strip for Involutional Lower Eyelid Entropion.

Introduction: To compare the anatomical and functional outcome and changes in the quality of life (QoL) over time of the lateral tarsal strip (LTS) versus the Quickert everting sutures (ES) for the repair of primary involutional lower eyelid entropion.

Methods: Forty-five patients (54 eyes) with primary involutional lower eyelid entropion were recruited in a prospective randomized clinical trial over 3-year period. Twenty-six eyes were randomized to the LTS technique and 28 to the ES procedure.

Corneal collagen cross-linking for progressive keratoconus in pediatric patients: a feasibility study.

Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in pediatric patients with bilateral progressive keratoconus.

Methods: This retrospective case series included four pediatric patients (eight eyes) with progressive keratoconus aged 14.0±2.
